You know what would help? If we had a full-time CT Legislature.
I believe one Rep State Senator also moonlights for Eversource, and one of the Dems' full-time job is with the state unions.
As long as these people literally work for the companies and organizations they are supposed to legislate, they will have an innate conflict of interest.
And as long as being a state senator keeps you impoverished, you will inherently be motivated to take political jobs.
