Senator Blumenthal
has scheduled an emergency field hearing in New Haven Friday to hear the public’s
thoughts on federal proposals to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. Monday’s
hearing in Hartford drew over 200 people with standing room only who wanted
to share their concerns. Senate leaders will not allow any official public
hearings or committee review of their bill. Senator Blumenthal is scheduling
these hearings to give CT residents a voice in this important legislation that
will touch every American’s life and one fifth of our economy. A draft of
Senate leadership’s bill is expected tomorrow morning.
Sen. Blumenthal’s hearing will be this Friday, June 23rd
at 1:30pm in the Aldermanic Chambers, New Haven City Hall, 165 Church St.
