Will your town be next?

Last night, Hartford City Councilor Luis Cotto introduced groundbreaking legislation to restore civil rights and liberties in Connecticut's capital. With the support of a diverse local coalition, Cotto's bill—based on proposed reforms developed by BORDC to stop local police participation in racial profiling, federal immigration enforcement, and domestic surveillance—is the first of its kind.

This legislation offers a major opportunity for grassroots constitutionalists in Connecticut, and offers a compelling example for local officeholders—and their constituents—across the country. Hartford is just the beginning: local allies across the country are preparing similar proposals and reaching out to allies. Your town could be next.
