National Parents Organization of Connecticut is proud to announce that on June 25th Connecticut Governor Dannel Patrick Malloy signed into law HB6688 revising statutes relating to the award of alimony. It is effective October 1, 2013.
Working with Connecticut Alimony Reform, our new affiliate has begun to improve alimony statutes in Connecticut. HB6688 highlights the fact that alimony statutes are gender neutral in their application; makes the switch to gender inclusive language; and adds education and earning capacity to the list of factors for consideration. It also provides for a study of the fairness and adequacy of state statutes relating to the award of alimony to be conducted by the Legislative Program Review and Investigations Committee.
