If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows. Don’t you dare act surprised.

Vermont’s Environmental Justice Bill (S.148) just gained initial Senate approval by voice vote. It’s about time for Vermont to join the other 42 states that have enacted environmental justice legislation! Special thanks to Senators @Bray4VT, @SenatorBalint, and @KeshaRam!

Just had a great conversation with Rep. Marcia Gardner, my representative here in Richmond. Climate action is her #1 priority. “This last year of the session has to be devoted to global warming policy,” she told me. 👏👏👏 #vtpoli @ClimateCaucus @VTdems #actonclimatevt – at Vermont, USA
