Gas customers face 17 percent rate hike in Conn.
Hartford and Bridgeport residents among 127000 Southern Connecticut Gas customers will pay about 17 percent more after the Public Utilities Commission approved a 211 million annual rate increase. The move, coupled with allowed pipeline cost changes, follows a December rate rise and marks the second hike in under a year. Company officials tout the increase as necessary for higher operating costs and investor returns, while Gov. Meskill’s aide and State Senator Gunther criticized the decision.

11% Hike Favored In Social Security
Washington reports that the House voted to move ahead 32.4 billion more for Social Security recipients next year through a two stage boost aimed at offsetting rising living costs. The bill would fund the rise by widening the tax base and increases to benefits begin with April checks and rise again in July. The plan seeks higher monthly payments for singles and couples and would shift timing of the initial boost to take effect upon enactment rather than with April checks. The measure awaits Senate action as terms are refined.
