VPIRG condemns the reckless actions of the federal agents that gave rise to the violence that occurred, and we urge a full investigation. We also support investigations into credible allegations of misconduct by local & state law enforcement officers that day. #ICEOUT #VTpoli [6/6]
One of the agents went into the attic to search for the man they had been looking for...only to fall through the ceiling, resulting in his gun discharging.
“I could have been shot,” José said. “I could have been killed because of [their] stupidity.”

Given just how politically charged this issue has become, that unanimous vote says a lot about the work the committee put in to get this over the finish line. #vtpoli #vthousing #Act250

Vermont made an error in 1790 and should have become the #ProvinceOfVermont. It is not too late.

The ensuing all-day standoff culminated when ICE deployed tear gas, flashbangs, and pepper balls against protesters.

My rep says the House is voting on this today. Interesting timing given the total shitshow in S Burlington yesterday. (She’s in favor :)

The party of child rapists forced itself on the brave little state of #Vermont today with Gestapo monsters.
Over 100 community members tried all day to protect the ICE target & were tear-gassed for their efforts.
They don’t believe in states’ rights. They believe in fascism.

That said, given taxes are due next week:
The next tax deadline is March 16, 2026. To be safe:
1. Drop your payment off in person
2. Use the drop box at 2 Lincoln St
3. Mail it at a post office counter and get a hand-stamped postmark

A little background and history about Article 6 on your Essex Jct April ballot.
Article 6 would require tax payments to arrive, not be postmarked, by the due date. I voted against putting it on the ballot, and I'm voting 'no' in April.

According to agency officials, these layoffs effectively ended their ability to hold student loan servicers accountable for the accuracy of their student loan records and for providing customer service to borrowers. #vtpoli

I don’t know much about her (yet), but I like what I hear so far. Exciting to have a new possibility - so badly needed.

Two New England governors. Two very different responses to energy costs.
VT Gov. Phil Scott, the nation’s most popular governor, recognizes the role state policies play in driving up energy prices & works to change them.
Maura Healey is just doubling down on her failed policies.

A graphic with a robot hand placing a ballot into a ballot box. The text reads "S.23, an act regulating synthetic media in elections, has passed in to law."
A graphic with robot hands holding a calendar. The text reads "The new law requires that any campaign media featuring AE-generated images, audio, or video used within 90 days of an election must include a clear disclosure, along with other regulations."
A graphic with a robot hand giving a thumbs up. The text is a quote from VPIRG's Democracy Associate Quinn Houston and reads "Vermont voters deserve to know when AI is used to create or manipulate political content they see and hear, and this legislation makes that transparency a legal requirement."
Vermont just passed a new law, S.23, further regulating AI-generated media in election campaigns. Read our full statement at www.vpirg.org/news/ai-elec...

Dear @welch.senate.gov
If you’re being outflanked by Schumer you are … wrong.
Mullin is unfit. It’s not ambiguous. At all. Please stop helping fascists. In. Any. Way.
#vtpoli
This is where you keep losing the thread @welch.senate.gov and it needs to stop.
Mullin is a lunatic. Full stop. If that is unclear to you then you are failing to meet the moment. And it is not okay to fail to meet this moment.

President Trump’s effort to increase tariffs worldwide without congressional approval disregards the law, upends constitutional separation of powers, and violates the Administrative Procedure Act. #vtpoli #tariffs
