MONTPELIER â The Vermont Senate joined the House in passing a resolution apologizing for its role in the eugenics movement, in which so-called âdelinquentsâ and âdefectivesâ were institutionalized or sterilized. The policies targeted French Canadians, French-speaking indigenous Canadians, indigenous peoples and people of color, and disproportionately affected women. The Senate, rather than concur with the House version of the resolution, replaced it with a âstrike-allâ amendment and its own wording â varying slightly from the House text, but hitting all the same salient points. Like the House version, which passed 146-0 on March 31, the Senate resolution, reported by Sen. Brian Collamore, R-Rutland, sums up the history of the eugenics movement, and the Legislatureâs active role in promoting it in the early 20th century, up to and including the passage of a sterilization law in 1931.
