In the Toolbox to Follow and Influence the Vermont Legislature, VDC also publishes:

Vermont Senate Bills, compiled with a similar format.

2023 VDC Vermont Legislative Directory, listing on one page the pertinent party, committee, town, district and email contact information for all 180 legislators.

How to Watch the Legislature at Home, a guide to accessing House, Senate and committee meetings via livestream and recorded Zoom links.

This Week in Committee, published late Monday or early Tuesday every week the Legislature is in session, providing livestream links to committees and a brief overview of the hot topics and bills of the week.

Together, we hope these documents will provide a valuable informational resource to citizens, advocates, and the lawmakers themselves. All information is offered free and available for public use.

H27 perfectly describes the abusive and coercive behaviors we witnessed during lockdown and the ensuing vax program. Isolation from family and friends, denial of opportunities, threatening and shaming and name calling. Indeed the hallmarks of an abusive relationship. If only laws like this applied in to the state and those who have captured it.

Here we go again, going to tax us to use the waterways of the state!
H.51 is going to impact everyone, kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, all watercraft, including inflatable. What’s next, tax all bicycles, razor scooters, skateboards because they have wheels?!

UNREAL just how brazen and ridiculous this is, this on top of we’re already taxed with fishing licenses, boat/trailer registrations, bait/tackle sales tax.

Another money grab by the marxist/leftist/progressive/demoncrats of this state.
