Across Connecticut, residents are rallying against recent deportation news that has sparked widespread concern. Protests in cities such as Hartford, New Haven, and Bridgeport have seen thousands gather to oppose federal proposals aimed at increasing deportations. These demonstrations underscore Connecticut’s commitment to immigrant rights and its role as a sanctuary for those seeking refuge.

Governor Ned Lamont has been vocal in his opposition, stating, “Connecticut stands with our immigrant communities. We reject policies that threaten their safety and well-being.” The state’s history of supporting immigrants is evident in the numerous sanctuary cities within its borders.

Organizations like the Connecticut Immigrant Rights Alliance (CIRA) are leading the charge, organizing events, and offering resources to those potentially affected by deportations.

“Our mission is to protect and empower our immigrant neighbors.”
