Grateful to join Deb Snell @VFNHP @AFTVT to amplify the critical call to address staffing shortages @UVMMedCenter. Housing is at the center of this crisis. I stand in solidarity to not just thank our health care workers, but ensure they have the resources to care for #VT #vtpoli

Reading through seven different amendments proposing seven different ways to restrict access to abortion, all are introduced by men 🤷🏽‍♀️ #VTPoli – at Burlington, VT

Firefighters support nurses. We know that understaffed means unsafe. Whether the fight is in MA or right here in #BTV, firefighters will always support safe staffing! @VFNHP @PFFV #UnionStrong

Getting paid $183k a month has a way of changing people.
Replying to @Pearson_VT @VFNHP
And as consumers we have choice in what hospital we go to. Too bad @UVMMedCenter Dr Brumsted has forgotten the past. 23 years ago he was our Dr, seemed to care back then.
