To compensate the Connecticut drivers who will also pay the tolls as they drive the highways, other taxes can and should be lowered. I support the reduction of the gas tax, a discount for easy pass and lower fees from Department of Motor Vehicles. Although Connecticut drivers would also pay the tolls, they would pay a reduced amount compared to that of out-of-state drivers and then ideally less for gas and fees. With reduced taxes and fees the net cost to Connecticut taxpayers including tolls could be zero, yet we could reap several hundred million dollars from out of state drivers. A lower gas tax would also encourage drivers from other states to give our gas stations more business. Win-win, isn’t it?
