Bill > HB06029

This bill seeks to repeal section 9-175a of Connecticut's general statutes, which would effectively withdraw the state from the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). The NPVIC is an agreement among U.S. states where participating states pledge to award their electoral college votes to the winner of the national popular vote, rather than the winner of their state's popular vote. By repealing this section of law, Connecticut would no longer be part of this compact, meaning the state would return to its previous method of allocating electoral votes based on the state-level election results. The bill is straightforward in its purpose, using a single section to eliminate the existing legal framework that had previously committed Connecticut to the NPVIC.
