AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Food Safety Recall: Crystal Temptations recalled Halloween “Chocolatey Eyeballs” sold at Marshalls, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods and Sierra Trading Post after milk (whey) wasn’t listed on packaging; no illnesses reported, but milk-allergic shoppers are urged to destroy the candy and contact the company for refunds. Storm Insurance Fight: Connecticut’s I-Team highlights homeowners battling insurers after summer storms, including a Harwinton man disputing a denial of roof replacement despite hail damage claims. Trade Policy & Costs: Senate Democrats led by Chuck Schumer introduced a bill to revoke and refund Trump tariffs, as Canada prepares retaliation—aimed at lowering costs for families and pressure on manufacturers and farmers. Workplace AI Compliance: A new look at 2026’s fast-changing AI rules shows Connecticut moving ahead on employer disclosure tied to layoffs, while federal efforts to limit state authority remain stalled. Energy & Industry: Hartford Business Journal’s energy forum zeroed in on rising electricity costs as AI and advanced manufacturing drive demand, with utilities and businesses debating grid reliability and on-site power. Aquatic Invasives: Lake Waramaug launched a boat inspection and hot-water decontamination program to slow spread of invasive species like watermilfoil and frogbit between Connecticut lakes. Meta Settlement: Connecticut is among states pushing a landmark Meta deal focused on child safety features and limits on how long kids can spend on Instagram and Facebook.
