Hundreds rally in Connecticut for immigration bills, aiming to protect immigrant communities from federal enforcement actions. Governor Lamonts Senate Bill 91 proposes investigations into use-of-force cases by federal agents and establishes protected zones. Immigrant communities express fear following Trump administrations rollback of rules keeping immigration agents out of schools and churches. Advocates, teachers, and faith leaders share stories of families living in fear and avoiding essential services. Republican lawmakers raise concerns about potential limits on enforcement, while Democrats emphasize the need for balance. The Inspector General supports the plan, and a second bill allows lawsuits against agents for rights violations.
