The wording in the
amendment, (link below) is largely vague; which means it can be
interpreted to mean anything a politician or judge wants it to.
One aspect, though, is quite clear; the State would have seemingly unfettered
control over not just land, but natural resources, declaring; "The state's
public natural resources are the common property of all the citizens”, and; “the
state shall conserve and maintain them for the benefit of all people.”
According to Republican senatorial
candidate, (Hartford/Bloomfield/Windsor) Theresa Tillett, “It would end up meaning “No
Hunting” (to protect the land from the lead in bullets), and that it will give
the state ruler-ship over the land and is a round-about *UNA21/2030 land grab
and a state overreach into our land rights, affecting the future use of our
property.”
Tillett urges anyone
available to both attend the public hearing and give testimony as to why a
Constitutional Amendment is not needed to protect either wildlife or open spaces? A link to submit written testimony to the
committee is in the below release from Sen. Art Linaras. Of course, you can and should email your
senator, as well. You can learn how to
contact your state representatives, here.
While willing to give the
legislature the benefit of the doubt that they do not actually understand what
was given to them by the lobbyist, or the future ramifications of such changes,
she says legislator need to be educated as to why this is a VERY BAD IDEA.
Connecticut already has the tools with which to protect the
environment. A constitutional amendment
is not necessary; especially not without ample time for the public to properly
vet it. No change to the Connecticut
Constitution should be made without the most careful scrutiny. There is no need to rush this to the November
ballot.
