Special Edition of The What: What Does a Trump Presidency Mean for Southwest Connecticut?

Monday, January 20

Happy Monday! On this Inauguration Day—and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day—we wanted to revisit some of the ways a second term for President Donald Trump could affect southwest Connecticut. 

Some of the questions we explored included: 

• How will a Trump presidency change and alter federal funds?
• What impact will a Trump presidency have on offices like the Environmental Protection Agency or the Department of Education, which are involved in local projects and regulations?
• How will Trump’s economic policies affect prices and businesses across the region?
• How will changes in immigration policy affect communities across southwest Connecticut?
• How will health care change under President Trump?
