This is a critical first step in rebuilding the political stability and safety of the entire region and securing a free and self-determined Palestine. Attentive and serious diplomacy will be imperative to achieving true lasting peace and a safer future for Palestinians and Israelis.

If the 50 years of precedence in Roe could be overturned, then why would we think Republicans would stop there? They won't. Just last week, Republicans in Idaho started their crusade to overturn Obergefell, which guarantees the right to marry who you love.

New Republican measure aims to get Supreme Court to end same-sex marriage

In 2022, the Court overturned the nearly 50-year precedent established in Roe v. Wade that enshrined abortion as a federal right.

Today we mourn the loss of Gov. Tom Salmon. When he ran in 1972, the odds were unquestionably against him. But he led with his values, he focused on issues impacting everyday Vermonters, and he didn't give up. My deepest condolences to his family and gratitude for his example.

Tom Salmon, governor behind ‘the biggest political upset in Vermont history,’ dies at 92 - VTDigger

The Rockingham Democrat shocked the state in 1972 when he was elected to the first of two gubernatorial terms. He died Tuesday at a Brattleboro convalescent home, according to his family.

I'm proud to announce I've been elected Vice Ranking Member of @democrats-judiciary.house.gov I’m honored to work with Ranking Member @raskin.house.gov as we take on corporate greed, shore up reproductive freedoms, strengthen our democracy, and defend LGBTQI+ rights.

Banning trans kids from sports solves *none* of the problems that Americans are facing. Let’s be real: Trans kids aren't the reason we can't afford groceries. Trans kids aren't the reason young people are giving up on ever owning a home. Corporate greed is.

Representative Becca Balint@balint.house.govJan 14(source)

Trans Americans are not the problem. The obsession with monitoring kids' genitals is the problem. Republicans want your kids, my kids, our kids to have their genitals examined by adults before sports practice. It’s vile and twisted. An absolute invasion of children’s privacy.

77,000 people in Vermont have $3.5 billion worth of student loan debt. This is just crippling for these families and is holding back our economy. Cancel student debt. @thesbpc.bsky.social

Sunday smiles. I feel ready as we head into another week of fighting for progressive change. The tide is against us, but we have to remain committed to the needs of tens of millions of Americans who voted against Trumpism and for supporting working people. Courage over comfort.

Representative Becca Balint@balint.house.govJan 11(source)

Right-wing extremism and dangerous rhetoric is able to spread quickly online in part because we don't have consensus on reality. Conspiracy theorists looking to undermine democracy thrive off of this. And this only stands to get worse as platforms shirk their responsibility.

🚨🚨 Whole realities — the supposed culprits for the LA inferno, a new MAGA map of the world, a child sex-abuse scandal ("grooming gangs") in Britain — now sweep the internet overnight. We no longer need fact-checkers. We need reality-checkers. www.axios.com/2025/01/10/t...

Well it's not news to anyone that Vermonters are struggling to afford anything after paying for their home, health care, and groceries. This year I'll be reupping my legislation that would build more housing, lower rent, and strengthen pathways to homeownership. Change is possible.

Report finds Vermont has one of the highest gaps in the country between wages and costs

Public Assets, a nonprofit focused on public policy in Vermont, has released a report showing wages not keeping up with costs in Vermont.

Trump thinks rules and ethics don't apply to him so this is no surprise. He has corrupted the Supreme Court to clear his rap sheet. Now would be a great time for Congress to take up the SCERT Act to enforce a code of conduct for Supreme Court justices.

I'm devastated for LA💔 The homes and lives people have worked to build their entire lives were destroyed in an instant. There's no denying it anymore. The climate crisis is here. These are the deadly consequences of our inaction. Americans deserve and need real action now.

Representative Becca Balint@balint.house.govJan 8(source)

My work on the housing crisis, the mental health crisis, and strengthening our delicate democracy will continue no matter the headwinds.

Rest in power, President Carter.

Representative Becca Balint@balint.house.govJan 7(source)

The hate, lies, conspiracy theories, and disinformation spread on social media are dangerous. It's flagrantly irresponsible to put the burden of fact-checking on users. It's time corporations are held accountable for the rapid fire spread of misinformation on their platforms.

Not a joke: Meta says it will end its fact-checking program and instead rely on Facebook and Instagram users to "correct" posts.

Proud to cheer when Vermont was called as VP Harris presided over the certification of the election. 👏

Representative Becca Balint@balint.house.govJan 6(source)

This year I’m reminding myself to choose courage over comfort every single day. The issues Vermonters are facing have to be tackled no matter who is president, no matter how divided Congress is. That's my challenge and I’m ready for it.

Vermont Rep. Becca Balint was sworn into office on Jan. 3 for a second term in the U.S. House. Vermont Public's Bob Kinzel recently had a chance to talk with Vermont's lone congresswoman about her first two years in the House and her approach going into her next two.

Remember, today we will have a peaceful transfer of power because Democrats understand that we can't only love democracy when our guy wins.

Today I will fulfill my duty to certify the election. Read my full statement:

The GOP majority in Congress is even slimmer since November, so we as Democrats have a serious responsibility to resist the damage the MAGA trifecta can inflict. We have to move forward with courage and bravery.
