Causes

The caucus has actively advocated against illegal immigration, the re-installation of tolls on Connecticut roadways, against the appointment of Andrew J. McDonald to be the Chief Justice of the Connecticut Supreme Court, as well as for reviving the death penalty. For the 2019 session, their legislative agenda supports bringing back the state's death penalty, making it optional for workers to pay union dues, re-funding an agency that handles gun crimes, and removing the state's support for the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which would switch the election of the US President to a popular vote.
