Time’s Up for #TimesUp in the House.

The Time’s Up Act is having trouble in the House of Representatives in the final hours of this year’s legislative session. The revision of the state’s sexual harassment laws had seemed to be on a fast track to passage. Every bill is in danger of being derailed by a talkathon on the last day of the session. That may be happening today as some detractors of one of the bill’s sponsors, state Senator Mae Flexer (D-Danielson), halt the legislation’s steady progress to passage. Passage by the House would send the bill to Governor Dannel P. Malloy for his signature.

The next 7 1/2 hours will feature much maneuvering, cajoling, and bargaining.
