Lawmakers Undo Mistake, Reverse Constitutional Convention Progress

The Connecticut General Assembly has corrected the mistakes of past legislatures by reversing their call for a harmful Constitutional Convention. Both chambers voted unanimously to rescind the previous legislatures' call for an Article V Constitutional Convention, a process that would upend established freedoms and protections in a chaotic process without any rules.
