Power & Politics - State of the state, and a look at immigration laws
This week on Power & Politics, we dive into the latest book from Gary Rose, professor and chair of Political Science studies at Sacred Heart University. The book is called "Connecticut in Crisis."
We take an in-depth look back at the 2018 governor's race. Experts weigh in on where the state has come, and where is it going.
Plus, we take a new law that's protecting immigrants. State Attorney General William Tong joined New York and Vermont lawmakers this week to sue the Trump administration, calling planned changes to rules for immigrants hoping to become U.S. citizens "unfair."
Watch Power & Politics Saturdays and Sundays at 11:30 a.m., 4:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., only on News 12 Connecticut.
