Time's Up! No Action on Connecticut Ethics Bill
The Judiciary Committee of the Connecticut State legislature went home without acting on ethics legislation that included campaign finance reform.
Rep. Christopher L. Caruso, chairman of the Government Administration and Elections Committee and one of the leading supporters of the ethics measure said:
"So far, the actions of this assembly show we are not taking [ethics] seriously"
Democrats accused Republicans of filibustering the legislation, but Republicans responded that the meeting was too short to consider the bills.
