Bill #8
Stuart told the Reformer her eight years as a representative have been productive. "Most recently, I was one of the General Assembly's leading proponents for sensible gun legislation," she wrote in a statement to the Reformer. "Right after the massacre at Parkland High School in Florida, I wrote opinion pieces that were featured in the Brattleboro Reformer and The Commons, strongly advocating for ending the slaughter of innocents by banning bump stocks and keeping military-grade guns out of the hands of those who pose a danger to themselves or others."
