I will continue to work with state and federal partners to protect our state's values, and to uphold legal, ethical and moral standards - and the Constitutional rights and liberties - that have distinguished America from the rest of the world for generations.

The way I see it hatred, racism and bigotry are like embers that, over time - with honest debate, leadership, and a firm commitment to our moral and democratic values - can be extinguished.

From the Green Mountain boys who joined the fight for independence; to a war that saved the Union, and two wars that would encircle the world; to Korea and Vietnam and the Middle East, and our F-16s defending the skies above Ground Zero on September 11, 2001; Vermonters have always answered our nation's call.

As more companies look to reduce or negate their environmental footprint, it is crucial for Vermont to be a destination with an affordable renewable energy grid to partner with companies and achieve our shared goals.

Vermont is a leader in environmental policy and natural resource management.

Vermonters are inspired by the bravery, courage, and sacrifice of those who seek nothing more than the freedom to determine their own futures.
