CMC Updates
By Justin Swanson
Committee representative for NESMA
General Legislative Climate
Despite a short week, the Capitol was active with meaningful legislative developments. The Finance, Revenue & Bonding Committee was particularly busy with public hearings and internal meetings to prepare bills for action. Additionally, the Senate held a session on Tuesday, pushing forward the legislative calendar.
Key Committee Focus
- The Finance, Revenue & Bonding and Appropriations Committees are continuing their review of important legislation and are preparing to act on several key bills.
- The Select Committee on Special Education is planning public hearings for two impactful bills that could significantly affect the provision of special education across the state.
Looking Ahead
As the committee phase of the session concludes, real legislative work is now ramping up. We anticipate:
- Greater movement on bills that have cleared committee.
- More floor action and voting as the General Assembly pushes toward key deadlines.
Stay engaged as we continue to monitor developments that affect Connecticut’s manufacturing community. Your insights and advocacy remain critical in shaping the policies that impact our industry.
