Connecticut has NOT passed a new state statute analogous to Texas's SB 1968 or California's AB 2992 to codify buyer-representation-agreement requirements in response to the August 2024 NAR settlement. Instead, Connecticut is a hybrid/distinctive case: it relies on the national NAR settlement's MLS participation rules (effective August 17, 2024) for the compensation-related practice changes (e.g., removal of broker compensation offers from MLS fields), but it already had its own independent, longstanding state-law requirement for written buyer agency agreements — Connecticut General Statutes §20-325a and Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies §20-328-6a — in place for over 20 years before the settlement. Legal commentators (e.g., UConn real estate law faculty, quoted in UConn Today) specifically note Connecticut was 'ahead' of the settlement's requirements because it already mandated written buyer agency agreements and consumer notice that commissions are negotiable. No CT-specific 2024-2026 legislative bill was found that was enacted to respond to or codify the NAR settlement itself.
