Reminder: Phil Scott wants to eliminate free school lunch program

Against the recommendations of legislative economists and nutritional scientists, Scott still believes food for school children is eliminable. He claims that poor people pay for affluent families’ lunches. The solution is to tax affluent families more, not require those who can’t afford it to beg for handouts with paperwork. It’s good for farmers, too, and promotes feelings of equality if everyone has access to the same lunch. Vote him out.

Vt. lawmaker equates transgender identity with bestiality

This is not okay. Senator Heffernan is also the only Senator to not vote in favor of Proposal 4, the long-overdue equal rights amendment to the Vermont Constitution. We deserve representation grounded in basic decency and respect for human rights. Anyone trafficking in cruelty and dehumanization should not hold public office in Vermont. Vote him out.
