In addition to approving heating assistance funds, the House of Representatives also approved the nomination of Connecticut’s judges. Reviewing judicial nominations is a vital part of the legislative process, just as important as any other piece of legislation that is debated.
Our rigorous nominations process assures that our courts are presided over judges that are smart, qualified and fair. Approving judges also strengthens judicial system - more judges means more cases can be head at a quicker pace. Seeking justice without bias is what we expect all judges to pursue. It is an essential pillar of Democracy. |
