Bill Summary

To withdraw the state from the Agreement Among the States to Elect the President of the United States by National Popular Vote.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to withdraw the state of Connecticut from the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC), a multi-state agreement to elect the U.S. President by national popular vote rather than the traditional Electoral College system. The NPVIC would only take effect once enough states have joined to represent a majority of the Electoral College votes. By repealing the state law that currently binds Connecticut to the NPVIC, this bill would remove Connecticut from the compact, ensuring the state's Electoral College votes continue to be allocated based on the results within Connecticut rather than the national popular vote.
