The Connecticut General Assembly is convening on February 7 for a "short" legislative session that concludes May 8.
Council 4's legislative priorities, informed by discussions with Council 4 leaders and members, reflect a commitment to four main areas:
1. Protecting Collective Bargaining and Workers' Rights
2. Strengthening Public EducationĀ At All Levels
3. Supporting Fair Budgets andĀ a Healthy Economy
4. Stopping Corrupt Privatization While Improving Accountability
Council 4 will once again host a lobby day on April 17. Lobby Day is an excellent opportunity for members to make their voices heard. By joining together at the Capitol, members will be able to meet with their legislators and advocate for worker-friendly bills. In addition, emails and phone calls to lawmakers will continue to be vital in support of our legislative priorities and the issues important to our members.
