Connecticut in Your Pocket

Now, you can have access to all of the members of the Connecticut General Assembly and their key staff right in your pocket. This application was featured on the "Outta Site" segment on WTIC-61 TV (FOX/CT) in Hartford.

CONNECTICUT offers you all of the vital information you need to be an active and effective citizen. Connecticut+ ($4.99) will offer contact, staff, campaign and biographical information. ConnecticutPro ($9.99) will keep you updated for one full year. ConnecticutPro for Android and BlackBerry ($29.99) will keep you updated for one full year and adds access from any computer.

Search for the legislator you want to contact and then call, email, or post feedback to their web forms. Visiting the state capitol? Tap on any address and get directions using Google maps. Want to follow the money? Tap on campaign finance and get a list of top contributors, industries, and economic interests. Want to follow legislation? Visit the "More" section and search for the bills you want to track and see how much the each member raised for his or her most recent campaign.

The applications include bookmarks you assign, a link to the official General Assembly bill information system, a special tab for new members of the General Assembly, a link to the governor's official website, a link to the Money In State Politics Connecticut page, an iPhone-friendly news link to Connecticut Capitol Report, our Twitter feed and blog, polls on issues, user feedback, FAQ, and the ability to email us updates on members of the General Assembly.

Our goal is to maintain the most comprehensive and up-to-date data on members of the Connecticut General Assembly. Information in these applications is strictly maintained by our team, which is led by Tom Dudchik, who served in the General Assembly in the 1980s, and is the editor of Connecticut Capitol Report. We also receive helpful updates from our users, which we check out to make sure they are correct.
