HB 5682 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE AGREEMENT AMONG THE STATES TO ELECT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES BY NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE.

HB 5682 would withdraw Connecticut from the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, ending the state's participation in this agreement. The bill repeals Connecticut's existing statute (section 9-175a) that kept the state enrolled in the compact. This compact requires participating states to award all electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote. By withdrawing, Connecticut would no longer commit to casting its electoral votes based on the national popular vote winner. The bill directly affects Connecticut's role in this interstate agreement but does not change how the state currently allocates its electoral votes.
