AN ACT CONCERNING A STUDY OF CRIMINAL LAWS OF THIS STATE.

HB 7261 establishes a working group to study Connecticut's criminal laws, specifically reviewing Titles 53 and 53a of the general statutes. The group, composed of six members appointed by legislative leaders, will examine these laws and recommend changes by January 1, 2026. It will submit a final report to the judiciary committee, with no direct impact on the public or fiscal costs to the state. This is a procedural study bill with no immediate policy changes.
