(2015) Regarding S.141: (page 16)
Rep. Webb of Shelburne explained her vote as follows:
“Mr. Speaker: This is a bill that both respects the second amendment and protects public safety. Vermont has a strong culture of gun responsibility but giving easy access to violent felons has never been part of that. Federal law already prohibits dangerous people from possessing weapons, but right now aspects of this law can’t be enforced at the state level. We want our state to be a place where a violent felon knows that if he or she has a gun they will be prosecuted. We want the family members of those who have recently been adjudicated as a danger to themselves to know that if their loved one tries to buy a gun at a gun shop, the background check will stop them. We want to be clear that people can recover from mental illness, and that if someone who has been previously adjudicated gets better, there is a process in place so that they can get their rights restored. The bill does all of this, while carefully protecting the right to bear arms.”
