Removed from New England
Discover New England, the official tourism group for the New England
states, has removed all mentions of Connecticut from its website.
This includes literally removing the state from the New England map.
The move comes in response to Connecticut eliminating tourism
marketing from its budget, including the $100,000 fee paid by each
state to Discover New England.
