Trump is shutting down the Department of Education. Our economy will pay the price.
Without financial aid, fewer people can afford job training or college. That means a weaker workforce, fewer skilled tradespeople, and slower growth. Businesses will struggle to find workers.
To re-cap:
1. The Gov turned over 140,000 Vters data to Trump, said they "had to"
2. Prevents AG joining suit so now other ppl are protected but not Vermonters
3. Fed judge: no you didn't have to, and it may have been illegal
4. Gov calls concern from ppl "political drama"

These comments are disgraceful, and we call on Senator Douglass to resign and apologize for his actions immediately.
Baseless hatred is not a problem for others to deal with. As this incident shows, bigotry is inside our own house. It is a stain that we all must confront.
Tonight at 8PM!
We’re meeting to talk strategy, organizing, and what’s next for Vermont’s Young Democrats.
Wanna join? Email [email protected] and we’ll send you the link.
See you there!

Zohran Mamdani defied expectations and will be the next Mayor of New York. He ran an indomitable grassroots campaign with a policy platform that gives New Yorkers hope for the future. Grateful to connect with him and learn more about his transformative progressive vision.
@POTUS@realDonaldTrump so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” is anything but for working families, rural communities, and our health care system. It’s not too late to kill this bill. Call your representatives today!

Today and every day, we honor those who gave their lives in service to our country. Let us all remember their sacrifice and recommit to the values they fought for: democracy, justice, and freedom. Their courage will never be forgotten.
And refugee resettlement has again been suspended, including for Afghan allies who remain in hiding in Afghanistan and Pakistan. For so many Afghans we serve @AfghanVermont this will have a devastating impact. 💔
