The Budget Addresses of Connecticut Governor William A. O’Neill    (1981 – 1990)

The annual Budget Addresses of Governor William A. O’Neill were among the most significant speeches of his administration.

Because of their public policy implications, the budget speeches were painstakingly prepared by the Governor and his staff, and, after their delivery, thoroughly reviewed and analyzed by legislative leaders, the news media, and the public.

Governor O'Neill's addresses outlined his proposed spending and tax policies for each upcoming fiscal year. They served to convey his administration's financial and programmatic priorities for that year's legislative session.
