S.B. 992, An Act Concerning the TRUST Act
The pain and fear that the federal government’s deportation agenda is wreaking on immigrant communities is undeniable, and Connecticut should take every step to ensure that local and state law enforcement are not parties to this harmful machine. We support this bill to strengthen the TRUST Act.
