@sevendaysvt What a joke. Why don’t you use it to implement the @TheIACP Bennington report’s 25 recommendations in all of our counties’ hub town & cities? Invest in communities not policing. #vtpoli

@lohalza @GovHowardDean The “nuclear” family is Christian fundamentalist ideology and rooted in white, Christian supremacy. Their narrative is intended to fear monger and establish a sense of insecurity and instability (read: TERRORIZE). It’s Southern Strategy 2.0. CALL IT OUT.

(1/2) A recent report from @urbaninstitute found that, in 2020, the maximum #SNAP benefit did not cover the cost of a low-income meal in 96% of US counties. Even with the 15% increase to benefits in January of 2021, which will expire on September 30, there was still a 41% gap.

.@healthvermont now reporting 174 cases of COVID ‘while infectious’ in k-12 schools over the past 7 days.
That’s the highest weekly total in #VT schools since the beginning of the pandemic, and 50% more cases than the previous weekly record of 115, which occurred back in April

Thank you, John McKenna. We second the sentiment:

To the @CastletonEdu Class of 2021 -- thank you for the gift of Adirondack chairs all around campus. They create great places to read or have a conversation.

A one-year pilot program, signed into law in July, reimburses schools that serve local food to students. Some lawmakers hope to make the program permanent. #vtpoli

We’ve just surpassed the death toll of the 1918 flu pandemic in the US. People are choosing life, health, family, maybe even happiness. The #vtleg sought to add $25/week to state unemployment benefits. @VTLabor killed it in the dark. Extend PUA, help struggling families. #vtpoli
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@AOC
You can’t force people to work a job that doesn’t pay enough to live. This isn’t hard. What’s the point in working a $7.25 or even $15/hr job if the childcare needed costs almost as much as one’s paycheck? Letting PUA expire was based on fantasy, not data. We must restore it.

210 new cases today.
More sick Vermonters. More dying Vermonters. More long covid in the months & years ahead. More & yet more transmission. To kids, elderly, immunocompromised, you, them, us.
@GovPhilScott could stop so much of this transmission but chooses, daily, not to.

We're Finally Catching a Break in the Climate Fight
A new Oxford paper catches the insanely rapid fall in renewable prices--but we need activists working as hard as engineers to make it count

@thomaskaine5 people who pay less of a percentage of income in taxes than they do and think their right to bear arms is paramount to public safety even after the massacre at Sandy Hook? The same people who watch Info Wars and listen to maniacs like Alex Jones and Steve Bannon? Yes.
English
@thomaskaine5 Are the same ones who believe the election was stolen, who support Trump, who are anti-CRT and anti-equity? The ones trying to destroy our public schools? The ones who are anti-abortion? The same poor SOBs who don’t understand Marxism benefits them and keep voting for rich 1/2

Perhaps my least favorite Vermont map of all time. It translates to a clear and present danger to all Vermont kids under 12 & many others, as well as a very strange & harmful turn from helping our most vulnerable by @GovPhilScott who refuses to issue a mask mandate.
