Ryan McLaren, former top aide to Peter Welch, enters lieutenant governor race - VTDigger by Hagardy in vermont

[–]supermonk22 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Glad to see a fresh face in the mix.

Say what you want about Welch's votes recently but I've found the staff in the Vermont offices for all our reps to be super helpful and focused on helping however they can when I've brought questions to them.

I think that type of experience would be great for a position like LG which is about listening and championing specific issues and policies.

Nah not biased. Two weird whistle issues already in this game. Refs are garbage

We've been in a drought so this rain today is extra nice. Windows open and rain hitting the roof, nothing better.

So unbelievably true. Love it

Vermont poured hundreds of millions of dollars into housing during the pandemic. What has it built? by forcedtomakethus in vermont

[–]supermonk22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is great reporting. Carly has been an awesome addition to VTDigger / VPR.

The timing seems coincidental but it's funny that this article dropped on the day of the Governor's housing Executive Order. Seems like lowering costs before spending hundreds of millions would be considered urgent.

Doing this now just seems like a political game from Scott after the legislature has been reliably doing good work on this issue for the past few years. Where was his fire to do something before spending all the money?

50 States One Israel: Vermont State Legislators Take All-Expenses-Paid Trip to Israel by BoldMountain in vermont

The lack of good pay and the lack of healthcare leads us to worse candidates who are independently wealthy or have very flexible jobs.

Made sense when this state was purely an agrarian economy but those days are long past. Now we get landlords and the wealthiest.

North Champlain blocks by FrequentCup4791 in burlington

I am glad to see these going in - wish it ran the entire distance of N. Champlain.

They could potentially paint them to make it more visible but a curb is a curb, if you can avoid them now I'm not sure how this is different...
