Relief/C.C./Department of Children and Families

Summary

The proposal earmarks $20 million from the state’s General Revenue Fund for the Department of Children and Families to fund an irrevocable trust that would pay C.C. for the injuries he suffered after the agency released him to a drug‑using foster mother. It caps attorney, lobbying and related fees at 25 percent of the total award and states that this payment would be the sole compensation for all of his present and future claims. The measure failed, dying in the Civil Justice & Claims Subcommittee.
