Ray Dalio and his wife, in agreement with Governor Lamont, are terminating their partnership with the State of Connecticut to help disengaged students through high school and into jobs.

True: dated records from around 19 May 2020 show that Ray and Barbara Dalio announced they were ending their participation in the Partnership for Connecticut, the public-private effort to help disengaged or disconnected students through high school and into jobs, and that this was done in agreement with Governor Lamont. Records could include the Dalios' letter, the Governor's office statement or contemporaneous news reports. Mostly true: the termination happened as stated, but a minor detail is off, for example the Governor's office describes it as a negotiated or mutual exit in different terms, or the program's described purpose differs slightly. Mixed: the Dalios withdrew, but the Governor's office publicly disputed that it was 'in agreement'. Mostly false: the Dalios only scaled back, paused, or stepped back from the board, while the partnership itself continued with their participation. False: records show no termination was announced, or the Dalios stayed partners.

   “Lamont made it clear that the decision to dissolve the partnership was initiated by the Dalios.”

On 19 May 2020, contemporaneous reports show Barbara Dalio announcing the couple's intent to withdraw from the Partnership (E1). They also report the announcement as a joint release with Governor Lamont, who said the partnership would dissolve (E2, E3). CT News Junkie describes the Partnership for Connecticut as a public-private venture to help at-risk youth (E3). According to CT Mirror, Lamont said the Dalios initiated the decision (E4), but none of the reports say he disputed that the exit was agreed, so the claim matches the criteria for true.
