HARTFORD, CT- Once again, Connecticut Democrats have come down on the wrong side of an 80/20 issue. Last week, the House Democratic majority advanced legislation that will force municipalities to abide by the state’s so-called “Trust Act,” which permits “any aggrieved person” to seek an injunction against a municipality or its agents, including police and school employees, that cooperate with federal immigration officials, the CT Mirror reports.
The bill was revised after pro-illegal alien advocates argued that municipalities, i.e., police departments, can ignore the state law already in place that defines when police and others can alert federal agents to the location of

Dims don't even care if this is illegal and unconstitutional. It will just provide for another impediment to the Trump administration using the courts. All they really want is to drag their feet till Trump is gone while hoping they can put one of their own in the White House.

Not surprised that a state that would elect Blumenthal and Murphy as Senator and Rosa DeLauro to Congress would pass something this stupid.

Actually, this is a great idea! Let every stinkin illegal know about this absurd idea, and tell the illegals they should all move to CT, where they will be safe and taken care of.

The police unions should be looking for a law that makes it illegal to rat on another cop.

I believe Tom Homan has all the authority he needs, using 8 USC 1324, to arrest every member of the CT legislature that for this bill. And if the governor signs it into law, arrest the governor as well. Enough of this neo-confedate nullification of federal law on behalf of illegal invading hordes.

CT as well as the rest of the POS liberal New England states are not worthy to be part of these United States. Let them go their own way, and take NY, MD, IL, WI, MN, CO, NM, OR, WA and CA with them. We have carried them for too long now.

Democrats are hellbent on hanging on to those illegal voters. They’ve alienated everyone else. Totally unconstitutional law. Shut it down. Send an army of ICE agents to CT.

Of course, the GOP are loathe to pass a law mandating all states aid and assist federal law enforcement in their efforts to eradicate illegals aliens. They have all the power at the moment, but as usual, they refuse to do anything that might anger the Dems. Instead, they go on another vacation while the nation is in turmoil. Th DOJ had better strike before the midterms, or all is lost. The Dems are going to retake both Houses in Congress beginning in 2027, then they're going to impeach Trump again. Bondi had better stop dragging her feet and start arresting congressional members from both party's - it isn't as if there isn't enough evidence of fraud, theft and abuse by both sides. Round up the leadership, the big beautiful bill be damned.

Sounds to me like treason and insurrection. Seriously, arrest everyone who voted for it, lock em up and throw away the key.

Perhaps the goal in passing this flawed legislation is to intimidate local officials, law enforcement and school employees with financially devastating lawsuits if they dare cooperate with federal officials. Last I heard federal laws trump state laws, but when has that ever stopped Dems from favoring illegal aliens over citizens? A reasonable person might wonder how a political party known for putting illegals first could attract votes from law abiding citizens. Will NGOs be allowed to fund illegal aliens who wish to sue cops or cities?

To the leftist and progressive Democrats there is no such animal as an illegal alien but just prospective foreign born voters. That’s the name of that Democrat game!

Random thought: Have ICE arrest them and let the illegals sue these cities into oblivion.

So, if a resident of CT refuses to shield an illegal from the law, he could be sued.
If that same resident of CT aids an illegal, he could be arrested by the Feds.
Glad I don't live in CT.

CT has declared herself an enemy of the Union. Let’s have the South Carolina national guard occupy CT.

#3, I know it sounds good, but there’s an enormous downside. Suppose every one of the 20,000,000+ illegals move to Connecticut. They can’t vote under federal law, but under current law they do count for apportionment purposes. All of a sudden, Connecticut would be the third largest state, with more electoral votes and more representatives than Florida. But controlled by the same tiny number of radical Democrats who would vote for such a stupid policy to begin with.
Mind you, those illegals still have the same effect on apportionment now, although it’s scattered across the country. Still, it gives additional electoral votes and representatives to California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts,…

#4: Be careful with that. Some cops need to be 'grassed', but the CT law is probably illegal due to the federal nature of illegal entry.

all these bad gov't ppl have rights--> to follow immigration law, or bravely accept denial-asap-of all federal funds.
they'd be doing us a favour; the dingbattery brigades of bad governors would lose their excessive salaries
and finally be voted out.

They stated that they wanted to focus on crimes committed in Connecticut. That's great! now every criminal from everywhere can travel to Connecticut and feel safe; not having to worry about their past crimes. Maybe the escaped killers from Louisiana should go to Connecticut so avoid police detection. I thought justice was supposed to be blind. In this case, justice is blind, deaf, and dumb for ILLEGALS. THey are apparently entitled to special treatment in CT that citizens do not get. Arrest warrant for murder? Who cares, it is from another state or country. Child molester? Enjoy Connecticut's many playgrounds and parks at your leisure. CT is a don't ask, don't tell state, unless you are a US citizen or in law enforcement, then you better follow the law to the letter!
