Follow the Money: Money in Politics in CT 

How much of an influence does "dark money" have on the politics of CT? Where does this money come from? How does the Citizen's Election Program in CT push back? Is "dark money" a problem? How does the "Citizens United" decision play into the equation? How can voters track the flow of money?

Join our knowledgeable panel to explore this important topic.
