Connecticut Attorney General William Tong filed a brief on April 29, 2026, urging the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) to reject Eversource’s request for $340 million in interest payments on nearly $1 billion in unvetted storm costs from 2018 to 2023. This press release does not describe a privacy-related enforcement action, as no data privacy violations are alleged, and no final enforcement action has been taken against Eversource. The matter involves utility cost recovery and regulatory advocacy, not privacy compliance.
This matter does not involve privacy violations, so no privacy-related contract clauses require review. In-house legal teams in the energy and utility sectors may wish to review cost recovery, regulatory filing, and delay-related clauses in agreements with regulators or contractors, but this is outside the scope of privacy enforcement contract review.

Attorney General Tong and a coalition of 21 attorneys general and Pennsylvania filed lawsuits against the U.S. Department of Transportation, FMCSA, and DHS to block demands for the personal information of 17 million CDL drivers.

Attorney General Tong joined a coalition of 17 attorneys general in sending letters to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve Board, urging them to deny Opportunity Financial's application to acquire BNC National Bank. The merger would grant OppFi a national bank charter, allowing it to circumvent state lending laws and charge triple-digit interest rates, posing risks to consumers and the banking system.
The court granted the States' motion finding that Nexstar violated the preliminary injunction by placing current or former Nexstar executives on TEGNA's Board of Directors. The court ordered regular reporting to the States and appointed a special master to oversee compliance.
Attorney General William Tong co-led a coalition of 34 attorneys general in a letter to congressional leaders urging them to preserve the federal redefinition of hemp and reject efforts to weaken reforms addressing intoxicating hemp-derived products. The coalition warns that reopening the loophole would create regulatory uncertainty, compromise public safety, and allow unregulated intoxicating hemp products to return to the marketplace.
