I want a Vermont that works for all of us, a place where our communities and families can thrive. Brandon residents should have the opportunity to earn a livable wage, receive high-quality affordable healthcare, get a great education, and retire with security. Every Vermonter should get a fair shot, contribute their fair share, and play by the same set of rules.
EDUCATION
schools provide our children with the opportunity to reach their potential to succeed. With the demands of current social issues, public schools are more important than ever. Otter Valley and Neshobe are vital to our community.
CHILDCARE
We need to ensure that quality, affordable childcare is available to all Vermonters and that childcare workers receive a livable wage. Childcare is CRITICAL to our families and our economic future.
HOUSING
Vermont has a housing crisis. We need to renovate existing housing stock, build more affordable housing and provide more opportunities for growth in our town and village centers.
Workforce and Economic Development
local businesses SHOULD thrive and provide quality jobs to residents. Career and technical education, and job training is key for future growth. It is imperative that we have solid high speed internet access for every local business and home.
WAGES AND HEALTH CARE
Too many Vermonters struggle to support themselves and their families. We need to ensure a livable wage, equal pay for women, and affordable health care treatment of addiction and mental health.
REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
protecting women’s health and reproductive rights is a value and ensures safety for vermont women.
CLIMATE CHANGE
I support the protection and conservation of our environment, and reduction on our dependence on fossil fuels. Keeping our streams and lakes clean, and our forests healthy is important to our way of life and the lifestyle that we all enjoy.
