Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.

"Vermont needs leaders who prioritize taking bold climate action, building a bottom-up economy, putting real resources into healing the opioid epidemic, and supporting and strengthening our education system ... Together we can ensure that all of us have a seat at the table."

"After a lifetime of working on the ground as a teacher, community leader, and political activist, I want to bring the people to the People's House. Vermont needs leaders who reflect experiences of regular Vermonters. We must expect our leaders to do more to support, reflect and make room for historically marginalized voices."
