Testimony Archive

CTLCV regularly submits written and oral testimony to the Connecticut General Assembly, state agencies, and other public bodies on legislation and policies that impact our environment and communities. We share our testimony here to promote transparency and to serve as a resource for advocates, organizations, and individuals preparing to submit their own comments or testimony.

You can submit written testimony to the legislative committee considering a particular bill by email, or you can sign up to testify directly to the committee via Zoom at a public hearing. You can access info on key bills from our Watchlist or go directly to the State CGA website for the weekly schedule of the legislature.
