State of Connecticut At State Of Union

Much of the story at Tuesday night’s State of the Union speech will be about Connecticut, from the Newtown massacre to Manchester, where bullets killed eight employees at Hartford Distributors in 2010, to Bridgeport, where a 3-year-old girl was shot last summer.

At least a dozen Connecticut residents with connections to those shootings – family members of victims, a survivor, or police who responded – will be seated in the House gallery as guests of members of Congress or President Barack Obama.
