I am reaching out to you, Gov. Ned Lamont, and copying the press, because of the unprecedented steps that you are taking to limit the First Amendment rights of houses of worship in Connecticut through authorizing an Executive Order you have said will come from you giving the Commissioner of CT DECD David Lehman.
