CT Bill Aims to Simplify Lawsuits Against Gun Makers

A Connecticut legislative committee has advanced a bill designed to simplify the process for victims of gun violence to file civil lawsuits against firearms manufacturers and dealers. This proposal comes in the wake of the Sandy Hook families’ decade-long fight to hold Remington accountable for the 2012 school shooting, culminating in a $73 million settlement in 2022.

The bill allows states to create their own civil action laws against gun makers that violate state regulations, a necessary step as federal laws provide significant protections for the firearms industry. Rep. Steve Stafstrom, a supporter of the bill, emphasizes that this change would align Connecticut with a handful of other states that have implemented similar measures to address the complex legal landscape surrounding gun-related lawsuits.
