The We Care Coalition is working to pass the Connecticut Parentage Act, which will ensure all children in Connecticut have equal access to the security of a legal relationship to their parents.

In great news, the Judiciary Committee is expected to vote on the Connecticut Parentage Act on Monday, March 29. So we need your help!

Contact members of the Judiciary Committee today and ask them to support the Connecticut Parentage Act. Here is some sample text that you can personalize when you reach out:

Dear (Representative/Senator ____):

I am writing to share my strong support for the Connecticut Parentage Act (Proposed Bill 6321) and urge you to vote it favorably out of the Judiciary Committee. This essential legislation ensures all children in Connecticut have equal access to the security of a legal parent-child relationship, regardless of the circumstances of their birth, or the marital status, gender, or sexual orientation of their parents.

If you need any additional information about this bill, including stories of impacted families, please visit law.yale.edu/cpa. Thank you for your work on behalf of the people of Connecticut.

Sincerely,

[name, organization if applicable, address].

Thank you for all the hard work and support that has gotten us to this step. Let’s keep this momentum building and get the CPA passed this session! Contact members of the Judiciary Committee today.
