S.B. 305, An Act Revising Statutes Governing Actions By the Police, Proactive Policing and Enhancing Recruitment Efforts
Senate Bill 305 rolls back too many needed accountability provisions and re-expands opportunities for police searches not even two years after the police accountability bill was enacted. Accordingly, the ACLU-CT strongly opposes Senate Bill 305, and urges this Committee to oppose it as well.

H.B. 5191, An Act Concerning Emergency Intervention By a Police Officer When a Person Suffers a Narcotics Overdose
Police and other criminal legal system actors are simply not the appropriate people to handle the public health needs of substance use disorders; they are not public health actors whose sole job is to connect people with the health services they need.

S.B. 306, An Act Concerning Deceptive Interrogation Tactics
Deceptive interrogation tactics used by police are unconscionable, expensive, and most harm the people whom our state has made most vulnerable: people of color, youth, and people with mental or physical disabilities. S.B. 306 would take critical steps toward ending deceptive police interrogations.
