Vermont’s aging population and limited economic opportunities threaten community stability. To reverse this, we must focus on infrastructure, housing, and industry growth to support families and businesses in District 4.

Supporting Vermont’s Farms, Securing Our Future

Protecting local agriculture is essential to maintaining Vermont’s identity and economy. Al proposes constitutional safeguards for the “Right to Farm” to shield farmers from excessive regulations that threaten their livelihoods.
Al’s plan includes expanding in-state processing facilities to help small and family-owned farms compete against large corporations, ensuring that Vermont’s agricultural community remains strong and sustainable for generations.
