Newtown alone should bear cost of new Sandy Hook school

The good people of Newtown have decided to tear down the existing school, the site of their unspeakable tragedy, and replace it with a new building. They have every right to make this decision. However, I am appalled that our Senators Murphy and Blumenthal think it appropriate to ask all taxpayers to share in the cost of this decision. Our federal government is running deficits in the trillions. We should not ask the federal government – or the Connecticut government – to bear the cost of this new building. It was the decision of the people of Newtown; they are prepared to bear the cost.
