AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

PFAS Funding: The NSF awarded $7.9 million to create the PFAS Environmental Research Network, led by Landmark College with Bennington, Middlebury, UVM, and state partners, to track “forever chemicals” in Vermont groundwater and soil. PCB Cleanup Uncertainty: Vermont schools facing PCB remediation are stuck as statewide funding runs out, leaving districts like Hartford to weigh safety and classroom access. Voters & Labor Rights: Vermonters head to the polls in November on a constitutional amendment guaranteeing union rights, with supporters arguing it protects workers and critics warning about economic impacts. Election Mail Protections: AG Nick Brown and a coalition of 25 states won a court order blocking illegal USPS changes that would have disrupted vote-by-mail systems. Accessible Outdoors: A new wheelchair-accessible trail in Randolph, built by the Upper Valley Trails Alliance, expands outdoor access for people with mobility challenges. Homeless Shelter Pushback: Plans for a 100-bed low-barrier shelter in Chittenden County hit opposition after South Burlington officials registered concerns. Health Infrastructure: St. Johnsbury’s hospital opened a larger, modern emergency department to handle growing patient volume. Climate Superfund Ruling: A federal court blocked New York’s $75 billion climate “Superfund” law, a major signal for similar efforts elsewhere.
