AN ACT PROHIBITING MARRIAGE BETWEEN FIRST COUSINS.

HB 5335 would make marriage between first cousins illegal by amending section 46b-21 of the general statutes. This law directly affects individuals who are first cousins and wish to marry under current state law. The key provision explicitly prohibits such marriages, replacing the existing allowance with a clear legal ban. The bill does not include exceptions or alternative provisions and would take effect upon enactment.
