Issues

The number one issue expressed by Vermonters is Affordability. All other issues are intertwined around this basic concern.

During my first biennium in the State House, constituents in Windham-1 have contacted me about a number of issues, including

  • increased taxes and rising costs
  • the coming education transformation
  • land use issues (Act 250, Act 181, S.325)
  • health care costs
  • impacts of the current federal agenda
  • as well as about my vote on particular bills or actions

In the legislature, I see that there is broad, non-partisan agreement around work to improve the lives of Vermonters. During the 2025-26 biennium, I supported work to address taxes, health care costs, education costs, housing and community development, land use planning, and homelessness.

As representative for Windham-1, I work to advance the best interests residents in Guilford and Vernon. I bring my leadership experience and collaborative spirit to the work at hand. I am committed to finding sensible solutions to address the challenges that concern us all.

I will focus on affordability as I work to:

Stabilize current property tax burdens

Preserve the character of our towns and prescious landscapes

Safeguard the education of our kids by advocating for communuity-led decision-making

Protect our right to affordable healthcare, while working to reduce costs

Support working families and aging Vermonters with reasonable, affordable housing solutions
