What is one part of Vermont’s economy or cost of living that needs greater attention from elected officials?: “Heating, transportation, and electricity typically represent disproportionately larger portions of lower to moderate income Vermonters' living costs, versus other earners. That means our dependence on fossil fuels is also an equity issue.”
“I do *not* support forced consolidation, which research confirms does not reliably reduce costs or increase academic achievement– often the opposite, especially in rural areas. Instead, I support recommendations by the Act 73 Redistricting Task Force, that reviewed research and Vermont-specific data in-depth and considered input from thousands of Vermonters.”
“As a rule, I am wary of drastically reducing local democratic decision-making, a significant strength of our state. In the current moment for our country I am *particularly* concerned about strengthening local democracy, amidst continual attempts by President Trump and others to misuse federal power and weaken the power and independence of states.”
