The bill focuses on how Connecticut is investing in climate change resilience projects as the state prepares to address the impacts of climate change.
“We have to have resilient infrastructure and that is what this act enables throughout this great state, said Andrew Mais, CT s insurance commissioner. According to Mais, coastal properties make up 66% of Connecticut s total insurance value. That’s all at risk unless we pay attention to what we have to do, said Lamont.
