AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Immigration enforcement in Connecticut: Sen. Richard Blumenthal demanded answers after reports of increased ICE activity and detentions across Danbury, Bridgeport, and Stamford, with advocates saying dozens have been taken into custody and local officials pushing back on the impact on people with no criminal records. Second Amendment fight: A pro-gun group, the Second Amendment Foundation, filed an opening brief at the U.S. Supreme Court challenging modern “assault weapon” bans, arguing lower courts misapplied the Heller and Bruen standards—an issue that also echoes Connecticut’s own firearms restrictions. Prediction markets in court: A federal appeals ruling backed Nevada’s right to regulate Kalshi, keeping pressure on states—including Connecticut, which is suing to block sports-related wagers—over who has final say for prediction markets. Local roads: A crash closed a lane on I-91 south in Rocky Hill, according to CT DOT. Sports spotlight (CT-linked): Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark powered a 111-91 win over the Connecticut Sun, while Royce “Roysha” White drew attention at the game during his WNBA draft push.
