That is exactly what the attendees of CERC’s 4th annual Research and Policy Conference, Connecticut 2020: Fiscal Implications of Economic & Demographic Change were asked to explore after hearing from two experts on the state of Connecticut’s economy and projections for the year 2020 if we stay on our current course.
In case you missed the conference, feel free to view the conference, courtesy of CTN. In addition, the accompanying materials and photos are from the conference.
- Baseline scenarios and fiscal implications presented by Jeff Blodgett, VP of Research, CERC (powerpoint)
- Transforming government: Survival in the age of permanent fiscal crisis presented by David Osborne, Public Strategies Group (powerpoint)

Stay tuned for our final report (due in January) exploring the outcomes of the facilitated discussions at the conference and policy recommendations to steer Connecticut out of a fiscal crisis!
