In the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Senate Republicans condemn political violence and the rhetoric that encourages it. Pray for him, his family, and this country.
Senate Republicans stand with America's most popular Governor! #vtpoli
The second quarter of 2025 was another exceptional one for Republican Phil Scott of Vermont, who was the most popular governor for the 12th quarter running with a 72% approval rating.

Vermont Republicans have been pushing this policy for a long time, and under the leadership of @GovPhilScott with the support of more elected Republicans - it's now a reality! #vtpoli

Vermont Senate Republicans retweeted
@GovPhilScott with the support of @SenateVTGOP @VTHouseGOP is still pushing to get meaningful education reform done THIS year.
Voters gave us a mandate, and we're not giving up until we do everything in our power to reduce the taxpayer burden
#vtpoli
Annnnnd the Senate is waiting on the Education Conference to come to a conclusion - coming back at 11pm! #vtpoli
Today we should see a decision on the education saga. After Senate Democrats threw in the towel, we're hoping to have a version that Republicans AND Democrats can support. #vtpoli
At the final moment with an hour to go, after Democrats trashed the Senate version of the Ed Bill in the morning, the Senate Democrats presented a 56 page amendment. No time to read it and no legislative process. #vtpoli
Senate Democrats are trashing the bill that Senate Ed. spent weeks working on to move us backwards to the House version. A bill so bad that House Democrats couldn't even find the votes among themselves. When Democrats play games, the taxpayers lose! #vtpoli
Senate Republicans have been negotiating in good faith - with our colleagues and with @GovPhilScott.
We've been clear: we need an education system that provides taxpayers relief and kids more opportunities. Today we'll see if the Senate Democrats agree. #vtpoli
We thank @GovPhilScott for his leadership! #vtpoli
The requirements would have mandated dealers sell an increasing percentage of electric vehicles starting with model year 2026, ultimately banning the sale of new gas-powered passenger cars by 2035.

The VT Senate gave initial approval to the 2025 Yield Bill to set this year's property taxes. An average 1.1% increase on homestead rates and a 1.1% increase on non-homestead rates. A LOT smaller than last year's DOUBLE DIGIT increases from the Democrat supermajority! #vtpoli
Senate Democrats are trying to block a repeal of the harmful Clean Heat Standard! Vermonters have spoken, stop trying to protect the special interests and start protecting Vermonters! #vtpoli
The Senate needs to work together to make these changes - for our children and the future of education, we have to succeed. And Senate Republicans are at the table to make this happen. #vtpoli
Senate Republicans stand behind the nation's most popular governor @GovPhilScott. He comes to the table with a plan and a vision for getting things done for Vermonters. #vtpoli
The first quarter of 2025 was another exceptional one for Republican Phil Scott of Vermont, who was the most popular governor for the 11th quarter running with a 75% approval rating. pro.morningconsult.com/track…
Senate Republicans have been ready to negotiate with @GovPhilScott, while the Senate Democrats would rather let vulnerable Vermonters be homeless than come to a compromise. #vtpoli
Democrats, who have sought an extension for all people sheltered through the state's motel voucher program, stood by that conviction on Thursday. Gov. Scott is expected to veto the midyear spending bill.

Apparently it's easier for the Senate Democrats to cry foul than admit that the Governor cares about the vulnerable Vermonters they're leaving out in the cold #vtpoli
The executive order, signed by Gov. Phil Scott late last week, extended motel stays for families with children and certain people with acute medical needs through June 30.

Senate Republicans will not entertain tax increases while Vermonters already can't afford their basic needs. #vtpoli
If Congress approves a federal budget that results in dramatic funding cuts to states, then some Vermont lawmakers say an increase in state income taxes may be the least worst option for Vermont.

Senate Republicans thank @GovPhilScott for his strong compassionate leadership; he offers compromise while the Majority refuses to negotiate. #vtpoli
