Connecticut allows towing companies to sell some people’s cars after just 15 days — one of the shortest windows in the country.
The sales have particularly affected low-income people, who have lost jobs after they were unable to get their cars back.
Connecticut’s attorney general has sent a letter warning Avelo Airlines that it has jeopardized tax breaks and other local support by agreeing to conduct deportation flights for ICE.
