CT Economic Update from State Comproller Sean Scanlon

A Note from CT State Comptroller, Sean Scanlon:  Each month, my office issues a letter to the Governor on the state of Connecticut's budget and fiscal health.  But our analyses go much further than that—we also explore how national economic indicators like housing costs, inflation, unemployment, and wages uniquely impact our state.  Kicking off 2025, I wanted to begin sharing this economic update with a wider audience. Whether you’re a business leader, an elected official, or part of an organization shaping Connecticut’s future, I think you’ll find our analysis valuable—and I’d love for you to share it with others who might benefit too.  We hope you will give our economic outlook a read, and we encourage you to share! If you have any feedback for us on what you’d like to see in future editions, we welcome it.  Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I hope you and your family enjoyed the holiday season!  Stay sharp, stay informed, and keep your finger on the pulse.
