I was extremely disappointed to read the many misleading statements made in the CT Mirror story “How state keeps unclaimed money away from public” [Connecticut, Page 1, Jan. 5].
Every year, the state of Connecticut sweeps up millions of dollars in uncashed checks, forgotten insurance policies and long-ignored investments with the promise of seeing those assets safely returned to their owners.
But a state program that was created to return so-called unclaimed property is operating in ways that can make it nearly impossible for people to learn the government owes them money.
