Bill to Repeal Death Penalty Moves to Senate Calendar

The Judiciary Committee voted in favor of SB 280 An act revising the penalty for capital felonies.  The Senate put the bill on their calendar and could vote on it the next time they go into session (not yet determined, maybe before Easter).

Now is the time to contact your Representative and Senator and ask them to support SB280.  Please contact them before Easter!     www.cga.ct.gov
