The CT Mirror covered a story in which all 14 members of the state Senate Republican minority called Thursday for a special session to save nine nursing homes from the loss of $5.3 million in funding due to a new reimbursement formula that penalize facilities with high vacancy rates.
“We can and we must restore this funding. We would like to work together to do so,” the Republicans said in a letter directed to Democratic legislative leaders. “People need to come before partisanship and politics.”
