Energy policies that confront climate change
While representing the people of Shaftsbury, Sunderland, and Glastenbury, David has fought for policies that protect our environment and keep Vermont at the forefront of climate change solutions. He recognizes that protecting our environment, including our water and our air, is paramount to our health and well-being, and to the well-being of the Vermont economy.
Local control of schools and education funding
Each year, our towns get to decide what they wish to support in our schools by voting for their local school budget. David believes that local control of education and funding is essential to a vital public school system that reflects the priorities of the community. He has been an honest voice of reason on SVSU school boards, combining his experience as a former educator with his business background, and bringing reason to impassioned budget debates.
An economy that works for everyone
Developing an economy that works for everyone, not just the few, is a moral and financial imperative. Sustainable economies are equitable economies, with budgets that are crafted to support Vermont's working families-- the lifeblood of our state. Affordable, high quality childcare, housing, and healthcare are key areas where David's budgeting and analytical expertise is put to work on behalf of families in Bennington county and throughout the state.
