There is mounting evidence that Corey Lewandowski secretly offered multi-million-dollar government contracts in exchange for kickbacks while at the Department of Homeland Security. @blumenthal.senate.gov and I are demanding answers to the potential widespread corruption.
Glad to visit Camp Johnson for the groundbreaking of a new center that’ll provide financial, legal, and health services to Vermont National Guard families. I worked with @sanders.senate.gov to secure $2 million for this project that honors the sacrifices of service members and their families.
Margaret and I are sending warm wishes to the Jewish community in Vermont and around the world celebrating Rosh Hashanah. We hope you have a happy and sweet year ahead.
25 years ago, our country was shattered by the terror attacks that killed thousands of Americans. We will never forget those we lost on 9/11. We can honor them by recommitting ourselves to our communities, our neighbors, and to what binds us all together as Americans.
I’m relieved to see reports that members of the Vermont Air National Guard are finally returning home. Every service member—and their family— have sacrificed in order to protect our country, and I’m immensely grateful for their service.
I’m thankful that Amy Acton was not hurt, and my thoughts are with those who were injured in this attack. The rise of political violence in America is deeply disturbing and has no place in our country. We must all come together to condemn it.
Vermont businesses, farmers, and families are being put in harm’s way because of President Trump’s new tariffs on Canada. Small business owners and leaders in our state came together to share more about how Trump’s recklessness is making it harder to succeed in Vermont.
Peter hosts a conference against President Trump's tariffs on Canada.
