Policy fights and voting are opportunities to build power in order to win better contracts, favorable bargaining conditions, and stronger communities. It is not about uplifting particular candidates or political parties, but ensuring we – healthcare and higher education workers – have a seat at the table for critical decisions being made about our lives.
Colleagues from across worksites came together at the most recent AFT-Vermont statewide convention to provide guidance to members on how to vote in November, in order to advance our interests.
Healthcare and Higher Education workers voted to approve Legislative Priorities for the 2027-2028 legislative session, at the statewide convention.Together, we’ll tax the rich, guarantee healthcare as a human right, secure the right to strike and more!
AFT Vermont members were deeply engaged in the 2025 Legislative Session — from securing funding for Vermont State University to calling on Gov. Scott to speak up for Medicaid.
