Patients who enroll in CMS programs are not only helping themselves and others, but are also supporting their Indian health care hospital and clinics.

ENTERED, A ccording to Act of Congress, in the year 1838, BY E DWARD R. LAMBERT, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court of Connecticut. PREFACE. AUTHENTIC h istory is of high importance. It exhibits the juris prudence, science, morals, and religion of nations, and while it •warns to shun their errors, holds forth their virtues for imitation in bold relief. But where is the history more interesting and important than that of our own, "our much loved native land," that abounds in incidents more romantic, or narrative more thrilling? Buta little more than two centuries have elapsed since the first band of the " Puritan Fathers" left their native home, crossed the wild Atlantic, landed on the snow-clad rock of Plymouth, and laid the first foundation stone of New England. Within this period a change has here taken place, and in our common counfry unparalleled in the history of mankind. A great and powerful nation has arisen. The desert has been made " to bud and blossom as the rose." And •what but the sword of civil discord can arrest the giant march of improvement, (yet advancing with accelerating rapidity,) till " the noblest empire iu the reign of time" shall extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific wave.

  • My Town: Fairfield, Connecticut Spring, 2017
    My Town: Fairfield, Connecticut Spring, 2017 Pictured above: Sherman Green, downtown Fairfield, CT Fairfield is on the southwestern coast of Connecticut and is part of Fairfield County. The town of Fairfield is between the cities of Norwalk and Bridgeport. The 2010 census reported a population of 59,404. Three major roads go through Fairfield. The three roads are the Post Road (Route 1), the Merritt Parkway and Interstate 95. My Town: Fairfield, Connecticut The seal for the town of Fairfield is at the left. Inside is a scene with a hill and trees in the background; with two individuals shaking hands in the middle. The year Fairfield was founded, 1639, is shown below the two people. Three small grapevines appear in the foreground just above a banner which says "qui transtulit sustinet" (he who transplanted sustains). The three vines probably represent the three colonies which formed the Connecticut Colony; New Haven, Saybrook, and Hartford. The grapevines are also featured in our Connecticut State Motto, "He who transplanted sustains." Some think it is from a verse from the 80th Psalm, “Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt and planted it.” It reflects the belief that the divine brought the colonists into a new world which would sustain them." Fairfield is only 50 miles from New York City. Trains connect the town with New York and other parts of Connecticut. There are two train stops in Fairfield. One is downtown and a new train station, Fairfield Metro, is located on the eastern side of the town. At left is a photograph of the Fairfield train station in 1941.

  • Connecticut Yankees Vs. Pennamites in the Wyoming Valley
    Frontier Vengeance: Connecticut Yankees vs. Pennamites in the Wyoming Valley Anne M. Ousterhout Michigan State University Elsewhere,' I have argued that the word "loyalist" is a misnomer when used to indicate Pennsylvanians who did not support the American Revolution. It implies that their opposition to the Whigs was motivated by an emotional and ideological commitment to England and its government. But my study of over 2,000 Pennsylvanians who oppposed the Revolution found little, if any, commitment to the mother country. Their motivation was very difficult to determine, given the pauci- ty of documents explaining rationale, but where determinable, it was more a nega- tive rejection of something in their Pennsylvania experience than a positive attraction to something about England. This was true not only in the areas more densely set- tled by Europeans but also on the frontier where the disaffected, both white and Indian, took a terrible toll of property and life from those they considered enemies. The word loyalist did not receive widespread usage until the end of the war. Its application grew out of the need of colonial refugees to prove to the British govern- ment that it should give them support in New York City, transportation elsewhere, and ultimately pensions, reimbursement for losses, and land grants in Canada. Any hint of an applicant's wavering loyalty during the war could cause a denial of or reduction in benefits. Furthermore, the British did not reward action motivated by expediency or accident. Therefore, the emigres emphasized what the British wanted to hear-loyalty-and, in turn, were called loyalists.

  • Connecticut Paid Sick Leave Employees Earned Average Salaries of Law Are Concentrated in Service Industries
    GOOD FOR BUSINESS? CONNECTICUT’S PAID SICK LEAVE LAW Eileen Appelbaum, Ruth Milkman, Luke Elliott, and Teresa Kroeger Acknowledgments We are deeply grateful to the Ford Foundation and the Annie E. Casey Foundation for funding this research. Thanks also to Lita Brown and her colleagues at National Research, who fielded the survey for us, and to John Schmitt who provided invaluable and frequent advice on the data analysis. The project also was greatly improved by the excellent input we received from Vicki Shabo at the National Partnership for Women and Families, Wendy Chun-Hoon at Family Values at Work, Jodie Levin-Epstein and Liz Ben-Ishai at CLASP, Sarah Jane Glynn at the Center for American Progress, Barbara Gault at the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, Lindsay Farrell and Kennard Ray at Working Families, Carolyn Boldiston at the Fiscal Policy Institute, Vicky Lovell (former Study Director at IWPR), Ben Geyerhahn (then at Small Business Majority), Sherry Leiwant at A Better Balance, and Jane Waldfogel at Columbia University. Heather Boushey of the Center for American Progress provided valuable feedback on an early draft of this report. 1 Executive Summary On July 1, 2011, Connecticut became the first state in the nation to pass legislation requiring many employers to allow workers to earn paid sick leave; the law took effect six months later. It brought paid sick leave to large numbers of part-time workers in the state for the first time, especially in industries like hospitality and retail. The law also prohibits employers from penalizing covered workers who take paid sick leave, an important protection.

  • Sales Tax on Business and Professional Services in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York
    Sales Tax on Business and Professional Services in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York By: Paul Mandel, Legislative Fellow April 30, 2019 | 2019-R-0104 Issue How do Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York treat business and professional services for sales tax purposes? In addition, identify the business and professional services in Connecticut subject to sales tax under Senate Bill (SB) 877, An Act Concerning Revenue Items to Implement the Governor’s Budget. Summary Connecticut (6.35%), Massachusetts (6.25%), and New York (4%) may impose a sales tax on certain business and professional services (local sales tax also applies in New York). Business and professional services in Connecticut and New York are generally exempt from sales tax unless specifically identified as taxable by statute. However, in Massachusetts, such services are presumed taxable unless specifically exempt by statute (most are exempt). According to the 2017 Federation of Tax Administrators state service taxation survey, there are 34 business services and nine professional services that may be subject to states’ sales tax. Of these, 21 business services are subject to sales tax in Connecticut, 13 in Massachusetts, and four in New York. Professional services are exempt from taxation in all three states. SB 877 imposes Connecticut’s sales tax on, among other things, interior design, real estate agency, travel, and veterinary services, as well as newspaper sales. The bill also applies the sales tax to accounting, architectural, engineering, and legal services. However, businesses may be exempt from paying sales tax on certain of these services. The table below lists the different types of taxable business and professional services.
