Thank you, Chittenden Central Voters, for electing me to a second term!
…and thank you for visiting my webpage. I am a Vermont State Senator for the Chittenden Central District of Burlington, Winooski, Essex Junction City, Essex Town and a portion of Colchester.
I serve on the Senate Health and Welfare Committee and am Vice-Chair of the Senate Education Committee. I am running for reelection to the Vermont Senate, because I want to finish the work I began in my first term.
During my first biennium in the VT legislature, I proposed cost containment measures to education funding. I was lead sponsor on bills that will improve literacy across the state, that enhance public safety in our libraries, that ensure libraries comply with anti-discrimination laws, and that protect our schools from the practice of book banning. I have the knowledge and experience to help guide major changes to education in Vermont while both protecting our public schools and creating a more efficient and affordable system.
I pledge to continue to work with my colleagues to lower the cost of health care while improving accessibility, and none of this can be achieved without investing in housing and infrastructure. From manufactured home parks to modular homes and new zoning laws, I will prioritize housing in all my legislative work.
Systemic change can not happen overnight, and a vote for me is a vote for someone committed to innovative and creative longterm solutions. I have the courage to make hard decisions, and representing the best interest of my constituents is my primary goal. We can’t expect different results by doing what we’ve always done, and with my experience in the Senate, I will continue to fight for affordability and equity in our education system, increased housing for all and an accessible healthcare system.
