I know we have one or two members from this state on this board and would like to here there take especially.

But this is a very slippery slope that is going to be opened up if it goes through. 

New Haven Mayor John DeStefano, a Democrat, said on Tuesday that illegal immigrants pay taxes indirectly through rent and send their children to local schools -- and therefore should be able to vote. The proposal would also lead to a more engaged community, he said.

Under the plan, immigrants who are in the U.S. legally or illegally, and may not vote now, would still be unable to vote in state or federal elections.

Until it gets expanded.

I'm a CT resident but don't live there and will never go back except to visit.  Many of the politicians there have lost their grip on reality.
