Montpelier, Vt. - Governor Phil Scott announced action on the following bill, passed by the General Assembly.
On March 31, Governor Scott signed bill of the following title:
- H.2, An act relating to increasing the minimum age for delinquency proceedings
When signing H.2, Governor Scott issued the following statement:
While I continue to believe repealing “Raise the Age” for 19-year-old criminal offenders altogether is the best approach, I do appreciate the Legislature’s willingness to at least delay it for another two years. In the meantime, we will continue to make our case for a full repeal, so we don’t proceed down this path again in two years.
