I mean leftover Sandy money funded my first job after becoming homeless with my 3month old baby.

They used leftover cash to fund the widening/finishing of the airline trail in North East CT. This was in 2013, They still had left over federal funds from sandy.

Made $12.75/hr(more than minimum wage at the time) to help cut trees, drag em to chippy. Got CPR/first aide certified, and set up networking with the state parks for future jobs.

Because of that funding I got my son and I out of a shelter and into stable housing by the time he was 6months old.

Yeah my kid is 9 now, and I worked many seasons with CT state Parks.

I don't know about all these luxuries, nor do I care. Connecticut is a great place to be. Been here my entire life.

So the the Governor’s salary is causing homelessness…? Logical conclusion.
