Governor Lamont embraces House Speaker Matt Ritter as Senate President Martin Looney and L. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz look on.

Connecticut lawmakers have a budget deal. U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal is back from his seventh trip to Ukraine. His colleague, Senator Chris Murphy, is launching a new fundraising PAC. Plus, New York State is imposing new laws on companies that let customers buy now and pay later.

Molly Ingram is WSHU's Government and Civics reporter, covering Connecticut. She also produces Long Story Short, a podcast exploring public policy issues across the state.
