The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5721, seeks to amend existing legislation to rename a bridge located on Connecticut Route 133 in Brookfield. The current designation of the bridge is the "Lance Corporal John T. Schmidt Memorial Bridge," and the bill proposes to change this name to the "Lance Corporal John T. Schmidt III Memorial Bridge."

This change is intended to honor Lance Corporal John T. Schmidt III specifically, distinguishing him from any other individuals with similar names. The bill reflects a commitment to recognizing the contributions and sacrifices of military personnel, particularly those from the local community.
