So much misinformation. What they describe and what is actually happening is very different.
Don't let them take away your rights as not only American Citizens but human beings who have a God given right to defend yourselves.

Governor Ned Lamont is applauding the Connecticut General Assembly’s Judiciary Committee for voting this afternoon to approve a comprehensive legislative proposal he introduced that seeks to prevent acts of gun violence, including mass shootings, community violence, domestic violence, suicides, and accidental shootings.
“As elected leaders, it is our responsibility to implement policies that keep our homes, our schools, our churches, and our neighborhoods safe, and the people who elected us want us to take every opportunity ensure this happens,” Governor Lamont said.
The legislation is House Bill 6667, An Act Addressing Gun Violence. Among its provisions include:
Closing loopholes in the state’s assault weapons ban;
• Strengthening penalties related to the state’s ban on large-capacity magazines to make that ban enforceable;
• Increasing the age to purchase all fi****ms to 21;
• Banning the open carrying of fi****ms in public, while continuing to allow concealed carry with a permit except in particular locations;
• Limiting handgun purchases to one per month to discourage straw purchases;
• Updating the state’s ban on unregistered “ghost guns” to stop their illegal flow;
• Requiring a ten-day waiting period before purchasing a firearm;
Increasing education requirements for firearm licenses;
• Requiring safe storage regardless of who lives at a given residence;
• Improving the design safety standards for semiautomatic handguns;
• Making commission of a family violence crime or being a fugitive an automatic disqualifier for holding a pistol permit;
• Prohibiting the carrying of any loaded long gun in a vehicle; and
Requiring trigger locks for all firearm purchases.
The bill will now be considered by the entire House of Representatives, and if approved, will go to the State Senate for consideration.
