Larson and Osten Bring Urgency of Faulty Foundations Issue to Secretary Ben Carson
State Senators Tim Larson and Cathy Osten told federal Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson that Connecticut residents need an immediate and massive infusion of federal aid of about $1 billion to repair their crumbling foundations, or risk losing their homes. Sens. Larson and Osten took part in an hour-long roundtable discussion at the Tolland Fire Training Center with federal, state and local authorities in hopes of convincing federal authorities to offer assistance to the nearly 1,000 Capitol-region residents who know or suspect their home foundations may have been made with faulty concrete. Secretary Carson said he would bring Connecticut's concerns to President Trump and the federal EPA "to help them understand the magnitude of what is going on." (June 4, 2018)
