Addressing Vermont’s Housing Shortage with Practical Solutions

By expanding support for accessible housing projects and partnering with local builders, the plan aims to reduce wait times and lower costs for renters and buyers. This approach ensures that more Vermonters can find stable homes close to work and community resources.

Housing Accessibility and Growth Initiatives

Expanding Educational Options for Vermont Families


Al Clayton supports policies that increase school choice, allowing families to select educational paths that best fit their children’s needs. This approach aims to improve student outcomes by fostering competition and innovation within Vermont’s education system.
Investing in workforce upskilling and modernizing school resources are key priorities. Al’s plan includes expanding vocational training and supporting programs that prepare students for local industries, ensuring Vermont’s youth have access to practical skills and opportunities.
