    During Wednesday’s House Session, we spent hours debating H.B. 7259, AN ACT CONCERNING REVISIONS TO VARIOUS STATUTES CONCERNING CRIMINAL JUSTICE, which includes the Trust Act.

    What’s new, you ask?

    • Prohibits police from communicating with ICE in many cases involving illegal aliens arrested for criminal activity.
    • Expands restrictions to members of the state’s court system and allows illegal immigrants to file lawsuits if they believe the law has been violated.
    • Prioritizes these cases over those of legal citizens.
    • Forbids ICE intervention regarding firearm theft, even in a state with some of the strictest gun laws.

    Don’t just take my word for it; visit the bill page to see the details for yourself. ⬇️

    In summary, Connecticut continues catering to criminals, regardless of their citizenship status. Needless to say, I have serious concerns about the direction we are headed.
