Lieutenant Governor John Rogers seeks to weaponize the GMDSA primary voter guide survey against his opponent. He claims this is about policies and not labels. If that is true then we invite him to fill out the short survey and clarify his stance on these policies. The survey is in his email inbox.

Jeffrey Peterson is running to be a rep in Vermont’s State House where he can better fight for universal healthcare, push for a ban on private equity and large corporations from the housing market, invest in public transit, and more. Jeffrey is a fighter and he’s ready to go!
Tanya Vyhosvky is running to return to Vermont’s State Senate where she will continue to be a voice for organized labor, sentencing reform, reproductive justice, and protect Vermont’s students’ educations.
Matt Gile is a longtime member of DSA running to represent the people of Winooski. As a school librarian and labor activist, he has seen first hand the pains faced by Vermont’s working class when it comes to housing insecurity, ICE, and healthcare.
Alexander Bobella is running to represent Franklin’s district in the VT State Senate. Alexander is a social worker and has seen first hand the painful realities that too many families face when it comes to navigating the cost of food, healthcare, and basic survival.
DSA is proud to announce our full support for our comrades in @greenmountaindsa.bsky.social and their slate of candidates running for local office. Mate Gile, Tanya Vyhovsky, Jeffrey Peterson, and Alexander Bobella are ready to bring the message that Workers Deserve More to Vermont!
