Vermont’s Economic Shifts and Education Wins
Description
Vermont’s unemployment holds steady at 2.6%, below the national average, but labor force participation dips—seen as a chance for grads to leap into leadership roles. State revenues dipped slightly, with corporate and estate taxes lagging, though education funds rose. Senator Peter Welch opposes a Postal Service rule that could restrict mail-in voting, warning it undermines election access. Vermont Saves hits $8 million in retirement savings, expanding to small businesses. Plus, Vermont gets federal waiver approval to redirect education funds toward student achievement, streamlining spending through 2029.
