Nothing was salvageable from our offices we share with @voices4vtkids. An amazing group of volunteers helped with clean-up & our staff, and board members are all safe. But if you’ve called our main phone or sent us mail in the past few weeks, please reach out to @PAISteph.

Going to try to post here more. I’ll share thoughts on revenue, taxation, and budget policy to make Vermont work for all of us; you can expect a lot of charts -- starting with this one about the net increase in migration to Vermont during the pandemic: publicassets.org/library/pub…
