QuoteI urge the passage of "An Act Concerning Discrimination" because my experience is in sharp contrast to the experience of too many others in Connecticut.In previous years this bill has passed multiple committees by wide margins. It was even passed by the state Senate. But in the House it was subjected to hours of questioning by a few legislators determined to kill the bill. They succeeded.As I write this, there are politicians in Hartford who support this bill and want to do the right thing, but they are under siege.In the words of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, "We must scrupulously guard the civil rights and civil liberties of all citizens, whatever their background. We must remember that any injustice, any hatred is a wedge designed to attack our civilization."Fairness, dignity and safety are good for all citizens -- and good for Connecticut.
