Trump's EPA is moving to rescind the 2009 "endangerment finding," which affirms that climate pollution threatens public health and welfare, and is the foundation of U.S. efforts to combat the climate crisis. #climate #vtpoli #EPA

President Trump has vowed to ban vote-by-mail before the 2026 midterm elections, and said he is working on an executive order to do so. Notably, the constitution does not give him this power. Read more: www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-b... #vtpoli #votebymail #2026midterms

Vermont took a huge step for pollinators last year by passing Act 182, a law to phase out toxic neonic pesticides. Now, it’s time to make sure this landmark law is as strong in practice as it is on paper. #vtpoli #savethebees Full Hearings Schedule & Sign-Up: agriculture.vermont.gov/best-managem...

We LOVE to hear about the positive impact our canvassers are having! Have a favorite VPIRG canvass story? Share it below!

14 states just unfroze millions in federal $$, but not VT. Why? Because Gov. Scott sabotaged the AG's lawsuit to secure $17m in frozen federal EV infrastructure funding, all while justifying the delay of clean car rules due to a lack of infrastructure. #vtpoli More: www.vpirg.org/news/gov-sco...

From suing the Trump Administration to protecting Vermonters' data privacy to rounding out her State Park passport, AG Charity Clark is staying busy. We sat down with VT's top legal officer to discuss her work, the current moment, #consumerprotection, and her favorite spots around VT. #vtpoli

"'The Scott administration deliberately undermining the AG's attempt to get funds back from the Trump administration — for Vermonters — is beyond disappointing,' said Ben Edgerly Walsh, climate and energy program director for the Vermont Public Interest Research Group." #vtpoli

“Did you ride your bike up the mountain?” I asked. “I did.” Now, you gotta understand, my mom lives on a MOUNTAIN. Not a hill. A MOUNTAIN. And a Gen Z woman pedaled all the way up here to talk to us about saving democracy. I hope this makes you feel a little hopeful too. ❤️

A woman about 20 years old appeared at my mom’s door tonight. “Hi! I’m Josie. I’m wondering, are you happy with the way the country is being run?” “NO!” My mom and I said. “I’m a member of vpirg and we’re canvassing Vermont to talk about Democracy Summer…” I eyed the bike lying on the walk.

From VPIRG Executive Director Paul Burns: "The U.S. Senate has passed Trump's disastrous budget bill. This is one of the worst pieces of legislation ever considered by Congress." #vtpoli

Vermont's toxic bee-killing neonic pesticide ban goes into effect tomorrow, July 1st. Here's the latest: www.vpirg.org/news/july-1-... #vtpoli

“Americans in rural parts of the country — blue, red and purple — are worse off because these funds are not out the door,” said Ben Edgerly Walsh, Climate and Energy Program director for Vermont Public Interest Research Group. #vtpoli vtdigger.org/2025/06/25/c...

From our own Paul Burns: "Vermont’s clean energy sector was once one of the fastest-growing in the state — up 29% between 2013 and 2017 and employing over 19,000 people. Today, fewer Vermonters work in clean energy than when Phil Scott took office." vtdigger.org/2025/05/15/p...
