Connecticut U.S. Attorney General William Tong.

Attorneys general from several U.S. states, including Connecticut, have allied in opposition to new Trump administration rules that target immigrants. This hour, we sit down with Connecticut Attorney General William Tong to learn more. 

Also, you many have noticed the recent deluge of headlines responding to the Trump administration’s threats to end birthright citizenship. But does the administration, in fact, have the authority to make good on these threats? We talk with an expert on the Constitution's birthright citizenship clause.

And finally, the latest development in, well, the development of Hartford’s Downtown North. We check in with the Hartford Business Journal’s Joe Cooper. And we want to hear from you.
