Gov. Malloy Makes Announcement on the 'Danbury Community Facility Collaboration' October 1, 2014 TODAY AT 1PM: GOV. MALLOY MAKES ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE 'DANBURY COMMUNITY FACILITY COLLABORATION' (HARTFORD, CT) - This afternoon at 1:00 p.m., Governor Dannel P. Malloy will hold a news conference in Danbury to make an announcement regarding the Danbury Community Facility Collaboration - an effort led by an alliance of local non-profit agencies to establish a community center at the site of the now vacant Danbury branch of the YMCA in order to restore programs and services for adults and children that were lost due to the YMCA branch's closure. The Governor will be joined by Mayor Mark Boughton, state lawmakers, and local officials. WHO : Governor Malloy, Mayor Boughton, state lawmakers, local officials WHAT : Governor Malloy holds news conference to make announcement concerning the Danbury Community Facility Collaboration WHEN : TODAY - Wednesday, October 1, 2014; 1:00 p.m. WHERE : Boughton Street YMCA; 12 Boughton Street, Danbury ### For Immediate Release: October 1, 2014 Contact: David Bednarz [email protected] 860-524-7315 (office) 860-770-9792 (cell) Twitter: @GovMalloyOffice Facebook: Office of Governor Dannel P. Malloy October 1, 2014 GOV. MALLOY, AG JEPSEN: BIA'S WHOLESALE, DRAMATIC FEDERAL TRIBAL RECOGNITION CHANGES SHOULD BE REJECTED Attorney General Files Official Comments in Response to Proposed Federal Regulations (HARTFORD, CT) - Attorney General George Jepsen yesterday filed official comments with the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) on behalf of the state in opposition to proposed rules issued that would significantly weaken the substantive requirements for federal tribal recognition. Governor Dannel P. Malloy said that he supports the Attorney General's comments and that, if ultimately enacted, the BIA's proposed rules would have a unique impact in Connecticut. "The proposed rules would have a grave and unfair impact on Connecticut and should not be adopted in their current form," said Governor Malloy. "Such a change would likely result in federal acknowledgement for groups that have made land claims to large areas of settled land here in Connecticut, and who have already been denied recognition after a long, intense, and fact-based federal process." "The proposed rules represent a dramatic departure from the standards and process governing acknowledgment decisions for nearly 40 years," said Attorney General Jepsen. "If adopted as proposed, petitioners could gain recognition in circumstances completely at odds with fundamental principles of tribal acknowledgement. These proposals - which could give previously denied petitioners a second bite at the apple under greatly weakened criteria - are unjustified and should be rejected." The federal tribal recognition rules currently in place require a tribe to prove its continuous community and political authority since first contact with European settlers. Under the changes proposed by the BIA in May, criteria would be weakened to require merely a demonstration that a state has maintained a state reservation since 1934. The existence of a state reservation, in Connecticut's experience, does not reflect the kind of political organization and history that federal recognition status requires. "Rather than improving transparency, predictability and finality, the proposed changes may undo settled decisions on which the state and others had expended significant resources and on which they have relied," the Attorney General said. "The continuous existence as a distinct community and the continuous exercise of political influence or authority within the group are central to the decision to acknowledge a tribe and to place them in a government-to- government relationship with the federal government. The proposed rules represent an unprecedented break from these established understandings of acknowledgement principles." The draft would allow a previously denied petitioner to re-petition if it can demonstrate that the changed criteria warrant a reversal of prior denial and if parties to its previous denied petition consent to the group's re-petitioning. Such a consent requirement would likely be subject to litigation, the outcome of which is uncertain. That uncertainty, coupled with the change to core acknowledgement criteria, could lead to the reversal of prior decisions denying recognition to the Eastern Pequot, Schaghticoke and possibly the Golden Hill Paugussett petitioners - contradicting findings in previous recognition proceedings that determined that the maintenance of state reservations itself offered no evidence of community or political authority. "There is no justification to permit the petitioners, and to require the interested parties to expend their resources, to litigate acknowledgement anew," Attorney General Jepsen said. "The previously denied petitioners had a full and fair opportunity to prove their tribal existence. They failed. The proposed rule allowing re-petitioning should be eliminated so that the state and its most affected communities can be spared years of additional and unnecessary uncertainty." The Attorney General said that provisions in the proposed rules dealing with splinter groups or factions seeking to be acknowledged should be clarified and made consistent to ensure that their purpose - to avoid the factionalization of tribes and preclude splinter groups from gaining acknowledgement when the group with which they were previously associated has been denied - is achieved. Additionally, the proposed regulations would eliminate appeal review by the Interior Board of Indian Appeals and allow only petitioners to seek a hearing before an Office of Hearings and Appeals judge after a proposed negative finding. Third parties, including the state and municipalities, would not be allowed to seek such review following a proposed positive finding, a move Attorney General Jepsen called "patently unfair." The BIA's comment period on the proposed regulations closed yesterday, September 30. Assistant Attorney General Mark Kohler, head of the Special Litigation department, and Special Counsel Robert Clark are assisting the Attorney General with this matter.

Governor Nancy Wyman today released the following joint statement regarding the suspended negotiations between Anthem Health Plans, Inc. and the Hartford HealthCare Corporation: "We are extremely disappointed that Anthem Health Plans, Inc. and the Hartford Healthcare Corporation have allowed their contract to expire today without negotiating a new one. "We're not interested in assigning blame. We want to make sure that everyone in our state has access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. We simply cannot let profit margins stand in the way of that goal. "Both companies need to return to the table and work out a deal that protects the health of Connecticut residents." ### For Immediate Release: October 1, 2014 Contact: David Bednarz [email protected] 860-524-7315 (office) 860-770-9792 (cell) Twitter: @GovMalloyOffice Facebook: Office of Governor Dannel P. Malloy October 1, 2014 GOV. MALLOY: STATE WILL SUPPORT EFFORTS OF DANBURY NONPROFIT ALLIANCE TO ESTABLISH COMMUNITY CENTER FOR RESIDENTS OF ALL AGES (DANBURY, CT) - Governor Dannel P. Malloy, joined by Mayor Mark Boughton and other state and local leaders, today announced that the state will invest nearly $3.8 million to advance the plans of the "Danbury Community Facility Collaboration" to establish a new community center that will serve the Greater Danbury area. The alliance, which is made up of local nonprofit entities led by the Connecticut Institute For Communities, Inc. (CIFC) and the Danbury War Memorial Association, Inc., is working together to purchase the now-closed YMCA of Danbury building and convert it into a community center. "By investing in this facility that so many depend on, we will ensure that this now-vacant building will be restored into productive reuse and the programs and services that were lost due to the closure of the YMCA will be replaced. We are also creating more opportunities for adults and senior citizens to enjoy recreational activities while providing Danbury's youth a support system outside of school and opportunities for a brighter, more successful future," said Governor Malloy. "And, our investment in the War Memorial is equally as important because it will not only serve the community today but will also honor and preserve the legacy of the sacrifices made by our veterans for generations to come." Governor Malloy announced that the state will commit $3,798,000 for the Danbury Community Facility Collaboration's initiative, which will cover about 75 percent of the $5,064,000 total project cost. Part of the plan for cooperation between the two agencies also includes significant renovations to the War Memorial totaling $498,000 and $800,000 for renovations to a building affiliated with the alliance that will house the Head Start early childhood education program for Danbury. The alliance expects to raise 25 percent of the total

  • Features to Explore in CT
    Features to explore in CT: Week 2 of the Great Outdoor Pursuit 2021 starts June 12, 2021 Feature 2 is a Forest-explore an area where there are many trees. Forests are known as the lungs of the planet. This is because they supply a huge amount of Earth’s oxygen, which animals need to breathe. The trees of a forest give off oxygen as part of a process called photosynthesis. Forest trees also help to protect soil from erosion. They block the forces of wind and water that wear away the land. In addition, forests offer a peaceful place for hiking, camping, bird-watching, and exploring nature (forest activities for children). (Definition from Britannica Kids). CT State Forest Facts: 1) There are 32 State Forests, comprising nearly 170,000 acres of state land; 2) While the oldest State Forest is over 100 years old, the youngest (Centennial Forest) is less than 10 years old; 3) State Forests include a variety of vegetation types; 4) All State Forests are managed for a wide range of goals. As a result, on Connecticut's State Forests, you can see everything from maintained wildlife meadows to mature hardwood forest. One benefit of getting out into the State Forests is to see the results of these various management activities; and 5) Connecticut's State Forests are located throughout the state, with Forests in each of the eight counties. This makes these Forests accessible to just about everyone in the state. CT DEEP State Forest Suggested Location(s): • Cockaponset State Forest in Chester and Haddam, various Maps (read about the history of this forest) • Nehantic State Forest in Lyme, East Lyme, Forest Map Lyme, Forest Map East Lyme (read about the history of this forest).

  • The Geography of Gun Violence in Connecticut
    February 2013 The Geography of Gun Violence in Connecticut Introduction The December shootings in Newtown, Connecticut, have ignited debate and activism regarding gun violence. Residents from around the state and country have come forth in grief to address its impact on children and communities. When talking about gun violence, it is important to acknowledge that the problem goes beyond mass shooting incidents, and urban residents, in particular, lose loved ones and neighbors to gun violence far too often. The geographical distribution of gun violence is not random, but heavily concentrated in a few cities and neighborhoods in Connecticut. The consequences of this violence are then also concentrated, leaving urban children and communities to absorb and address them. Connecticut Is A Safe Place… Connecticut overall is a fairly safe state to live in, compared to the United States as a whole. Firearm homicide rates are slightly below the national average (2.71 per 100,000, compared to 2.75 nationally), while aggravated assault and robbery with firearms are well below the national average (35 to 39and 20 to 43, respectively).1 But Violence Is Concentrated in Cities. Crime is not evenly distributed across our state. Our largest cities show a different experience with guns and violence. Only 11% of Connecticut residents live in Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport. But these three cities combined are home to 67% of homicides, 62% of armed robberies and 81% of aggravated assaults involving firearms in the state. In 2010, 62 of the 92 Homicides Per 100,000 Residents Robbery, Assault Per 100,000 Residents Source: CT Unified Crime Reports, 2010 Source: CT Unified Crime Reports, 2010 homicides using a firearm 25 250 in Connecticut took place 20 200 in these three cities.
