82nd Governor of Vermont | Working to grow the economy, make Vermont more affordable and protect the most vulnerable
Getting a hike in before the National Governors Association meeting in Colorado. The Rockies think they’re tough, but the Greens are still better! ⛰️



I wish all Vermonters and visitors a happy and safe Fourth of July! It’s important to remember that there is more that unites us than divides us, and when we speak with one voice, America is an unstoppable force for good in a world that desperately needs more of it.
Sure.. Governor... Sure... 🙃
I had to set the record straight at Chelsea Square Diner this morning: New York syrup is superior to Vermont syrup. Period.
This is one of many examples of how closely intertwined we are with our friends and allies to the north, and I'm appreciative of their willingness to help. compassvermont.substack.com/p/like-a-good-…
Good luck to Giovanni Linnehan of Whitingham who will be traveling to Florida in a few weeks for the World Martial Arts Championship! We'll be cheering you on and know you'll represent Vermont well. wcax.com/2025/06/24/ver…
Today I signed S.51, which includes tax breaks for workers, families and seniors. It also fully exempts military retirement income up to $125,000 and tapers off for those receiving more. This income tax exemption is something I and many others have long advocated for.

With this week's high temperatures, it's important to stay safe and check in on your neighbors. You can find more information about cooling sites by calling 2-1-1 or visiting HealthVermont.gov/Hot-Weather
To begin addressing the housing crisis, we launched a program to fast-track housing by making site improvements to vacant lots in mobile home parks, placing new manufactured homes, and selling them at cost to buyers. Once they sell, the money is used to purchase a new home.
#Vermont’s Mobile Home Infill Program + Champlain Housing Trust's Manufactured Housing Down Payment Program = new homes for as little as $59,000. See how Kendra Payea did it: accd.vermont.gov/agency-news/do… #housing #vt
