Vermont’s congressional delegation was heard from in Washington this week. In the House, Congresswoman Becca Balint proposed an ambitious plan to build more housing. And in the Senate, Bernie Sanders and Peter Welch made a lonely stand against sending more money to Israel.
In Montpelier, lawmakers tried to rush through a last minute fix to an education spending disaster. But no one knows if it will work. Gov. Phil Scott wants more focus on public safety, and some Democrats want more taxes on the wealthy.
Meanwhile, sports gamblers are breaking financial projections, and a Franklin County hero has broken her own record. All that and more ahead on Vermont This Week.
