2022 Bill Tracking. Connecticut General Assembly. Office of Legislative Research. By: Jessica Callahan, Associate Analyst and Matthew H. Frame, Legislative Analyst II. Special Report lists bills that were, at a minimum, fully drafted and had a public hearing but whose substance, in part or in whole, was enacted as a public act through separate legislation. The report includes those acts that (1) borrowed specific content from another bill or (2) addressed similar concepts using language that did not exactly match that of the other bill. The content or concepts of one bill are generally carried forward into another by (1) a committee amending or substituting the language of an existing bill or creating a new bill that uses language from a previous bill and then favorably reporting the bill or (2) the House or Senate adopting an amendment containing language from a bill that otherwise failed to move forward. During this session, the content or concepts originating in 166 bills were incorporated into other legislation that was enacted in 36 public acts and one special act.
