Thirty Connecticut lawmakers have co-sponsored a mixed-martial arts bill, which gained approval Tuesday from the Legislature's public safety and securitycommittee.
We will immediately go ahead to introduce a resolution of both Houses - in advance of any future legislation - that will enshrine an enhanced scrutiny and public role for the Intelligence and SecurityCommittee.
This will lead to more Parliamentary debate on security matters, public hearings on the national security strategy, and - as promised - greater transparency over appointments to the Committee so that the Committee can not only review intelligence and security but also perform a public role - more akin to the practice of Select Committees - in reporting to and informing the country on security matters.
