Hwang Calls For Fairfield Speed Camera Pause

May 28, 2026 Stephen Krauchick

https://youtu.be/VtsxVHTmlVo State Sen. Tony Hwang, ranking Republican leader on the Transportation Committee, is calling on Fairfield officials to pause the town’s speed camera program after warning-period data projected nearly 190,000 violations in May. Hwang said the number is “alarming and shocking,” but not surprising, arguing that speeding has become normalized across Fairfield and other Connecticut communities. He said he continues to support speed and red-light cameras as a public safety tool, but believes Fairfield should use the May warning period to improve education, signage, public awareness and transparency before full enforcement continues. Hwang said the program grew out of Connecticut’s 2023 Vision Zero roadway safety legislation, which allowed municipalities to adopt automated traffic enforcement programs with state approval. Connecticut’s Public…

BLUMENTHAL, DELUZIO, & BOYLE INTRODUCE BILL RESTORING LEGAL PROTECTIONS FOR AMTRAK PASSENGERS

May 25, 2026 Alex

[WASHINGTON, D.C.] – U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and U.S. Representatives Chris Deluzio (D-PA) and Brendan F. Boyle (D-PA) introduced the Ending Passenger Rail Forced Arbitration Act, legislation providing Amtrak passengers a pathway to seek justice after incidents of negligence or misconduct. In 2019, Amtrak quietly implemented a broad arbitration agreement and class action waiver policy that include personal injury claims, such as gross negligence and wrongful death, as well as claims of discrimination. The policy’s forced arbitration provision requires Amtrak passengers to forfeit their right to sue Amtrak in a U.S. court for any reason with the purchase of an Amtrak ticket. The Ending Passenger Rail Forced Arbitration Act prohibits Amtrak from continuing to impose its forced arbitration and class action waiver policy…
