Coming to a Town Near You in 2026!
Connecticut families are struggling. The stakes are only getting higher thanks to deep federal cuts and new, rigorous work requirements to access food assistance as well as similar hurdles to access health coverage and more on the horizon.
Fully funding our communities will require reforming outdated fiscal controls that limit how much our state can invest in. Please join us to learn more, including what we can do about it! In 2026 CT Voices for Children will visit Greenwich, Torrington, and Norwich. They will provide dinner, child care and translation services. We hope you’ll join us to be part of the conversation.

Private Equity Legislative Forum April 16th!
Private Equity is a growing concern, and CCAG and allies are organizing a legislative forum on April 16 to educate lawmakers and the public. Private equity investment seeks large, short-term profits, and is seeping into nearly every sector of our economy and public life.
The bankruptcy of three CT hospitals and the bankruptcy of Concierge Apartments, the former Century Hills, can be traced to private equity. Several bills this session would address its impact on nursing homes, day care centers, housing, and hospitals. We will welcome keynote speaker Megan Greenwell, author of Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream. The forum will also feature legislative leaders and people in Connecticut whose lives have been impacted by private equity. RSVP TODAY! |
CCAG has officially released the 2025 Legislative Scorecard!
The CCAG legislative scorecard shows how legislators voted on key bills in relation to CCAG’s issues and policy positions. It’s important to identify and support legislators who are working in support of our issues and values.
We need to know how lawmakers are voting - more so now than ever, as Connecticut and other states are called upon to protect our values in light of attacks from Washington and the Trump regime. Before you head to the capitol, make sure you check out the 2025 Legislative Scorecard, so you can identify which lawmakers will move Connecticut forward, which ones are standing in our way. |
