New State Laws Go Into Effect January 1

The image will be shown on special license plates and rearview mirror hangers, as well as new or replacement parking-space signs. Contractors engaged in water and fire-damage repairs, storm restoration and mold remediations will now have to register with the state Department of Consumer Protection. Drug stores will now sell anti-overdose drugs such as Naxalone without a prescription and health insurers that provide prescription coverage, must pay for it without requiring prior authorization. Connecticut health insurance policies must cover three-dimensonal mammograms, called breast tomosynthesis, including baseline mammograms for women aged 35 and 39, plus annual mammograms for those 40 and older. Employers will now be prohibited from asking job candidates about their history of arrests, criminal charges or convictions, except for jobs requiring a security or fidelity bond and for certain employers required by state or federal law to ask.
