House session for “veto override” accelerated to Tuesday

HARTFORD — In attempt to kill the Republican budget quickly, Speaker of the House Joe Aresimowicz will call for a veto session of the House of Representatives as soon as Tuesday, a full week before GOP leaders have expected, Hearst Connecticut Media has learned. By moving the veto-override session up from October 10, the statutory date following Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s veto Thursday of the controversial two-year, $40-billion package, Aresimowicz hopes to finally dispatch it and focus on bipartisan negotiations as the state moves into a fourth month without an operating budget. The budget passed the House 77-73 and Senate 21-15 with a handful of Democratic votes two weeks ago.
