I think I have to delete this app. Using it supports evil.

Day 2. So many good conversations with people who differ from me.
Never scared to find a way to work together. Always willing to compromise as long as the compromise doesn't cost human lives. Let's get moving!

Tomorrow starts another legislative session. It is going to be a tough session and yet we still need to find a way to ensure people continuous shelter. We are going to have to find a way to move this because lives depend on it.

Listen to my conversation with @BrendaForVT about recent deaths of unhoused Vermonters. It doesn’t have to be this way. #VTpoli @vtdigger @BrattReformer linktr.ee/isaacvt
1/ As Vermonters die outside, we have been begging for reasonable accommodations for our clients wirh disabilities & health conditions to use available rooms. Those RA requests have primarily been denied.

/2 We are in a crisis with a rising death toll and we can't get our clients into available rooms.
How many people have to die?

On @WDEVRadio this week I interviewed @BrendaForVT about deaths resulting from @GovPhilScott decision to restrict access to the motel program. Also spoke with @MigrantJustice and labor union organizers. You can listen to podcast here. 🎧 tr.ee/mUs3b0z1Jk #VTpoli
It is the good people who do nothing while people die that make me more angry than anyone else. How can people turn a blind eye? I just do not understand. I really don't.
