CT HB06173

Requires income phase-outs for all state services and benefits that have qualifying income thresholds, replacing abrupt cutoffs with gradual reductions

Applies to senior housing, property tax relief, personal income tax deductions for retirement income, and child care benefits eligibility

Aims to reduce or eliminate the "cliff effect," where small income increases cause complete loss of benefits

Amends Connecticut general statutes to implement gradual benefit reductions as income rises above eligibility thresholds
