Discuss Local Motion's Legislative Priorities

Join us on June 13th at 6pm for a legislative discussion. The movement that you are a part of is stronger than ever - and legislatures are listening! We will talk about the legislative changes that were made in this past year and think about our priorities for next year.
We want to hear from you!

Here's what we achieved together this past year:

  • We changed Vermont's vulnerable user passing law to require that drivers give at least four feet of clearance when passing people walking, biking, and rolling
  • We fixed Vermont's definition of a "pedestrian" so that it includes people using manual wheelchairs and other assistive devices, which ensures that these users are extended the same legal right-of-way as other pedestrians
  • We removed Vermont's requirement that people use sidewalks when present, recognizing that sidewalks are often impassable for people using walkers and wheelchairs
  • We protected Vermont's e-bike incentive program from being eliminated
