    Bad Bills of the Wild, Wild Left – 2024 Edition

    Bad Bills of the Wild, Wild Left – 2024 Edition
    This article was archived from the previous WordPress site. Formatting and media should be close, but may not match the original post perfectly.

    Each session, there are hundreds of bills introduced in Hartford, and you would not believe some of the ideas that extreme members of the legislature dream up.

    Decriminalizing the possession of hallucinogenic mushrooms? Giving illegal immigrants taxpayer-funded health insurance? Mandating that you drive an electric vehicle? Stopping landlords from evicting people? Erasing women and mothers from state statutes?

    These are not just ideas; they are the many bad bills that have actually been introduced by members of the Democrat majority. These bills are aimed at pushing an extreme progressive agenda, while ignoring average taxpayers, women and property owners, among many others.

    These are just a few of the pieces of legislation proposed this 2024 session (and there are many more). You can read more about these bills at www.CTBADBILLS.com
