Conclusion ...........................................................................................................................16 VT LEG #357238 v.4 3 A. Introduction The Legislative Advisory Committee on the State House has met weekly for almost two months and members have had robust and productive discussions about how best to return to the State House in January. We have benefited greatly from the support from legislative staff who work in the State House and from staff at BGS. Our task was to make recommendations how to return to work in the State House, recognizing that the State House is the proper place for us to conduct legislative business, while also a workplace and a living museum. In these extraordinary times, these different roles may conflict, and we have done our best to make recommendations to resolve these conflicts or to identify issues that should be resolved in other venues or at a later time. We haven’t agreed on everything and our report reflects that. However, we are all in agreement that meeting in the State House next January will require flexibility and a willingness to adapt.

  • Forum: a Child of an Era of Fear
    Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2018 11:20 AM To: Maxine Grad Subject: Bob Williamson shares Hailey Napier's powerful letter from the VALLEY NEWS Dear Chair Maxine Grad, Below is Hailey Napier’s letter from the VALLEY NEWS. Hailey eloquently expresses how today’s youngsters feel when mass shootings occur and lawmakers do little to address the lethal problem. Best, Bob Williamson…And here’s the letter: http://www.vnews.com/ Forum: A Child of an Era of Fear When I was 12 years old, I began scanning for exits at every movie theater I went to and carefully thought through escape scenarios as the previews played. I assessed the space between the seats and the floor. Would I be able to crawl between the armrest and the wall unseen? That was the year of the Aurora shooting. If you don’t remember the details, 12 people were murdered in a Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colo.. They were watching The Dark Knight Rises. I had begged to see the movie myself, and as I read the headlines online, I realized that innocent people had died, and that I could easily have been one of them. I am a child of an era of fear. Born almost exactly a year after Columbine, I grew up with the pitch black, unspoken terror of lockdown drills. Hiding in corners and closets and behind desks, as if turning the lights off will convince a killer that school’s been canceled on a Tuesday in May; as if a bookshelf will protect me from the rain of bullets driven by some arbitrary vendetta against society.

CARL ROSENQUIST GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE COMMITTEE ON HUMAN SERVICES April 20, 2020 Ken Schatz, Commissioner Department for Children and Families 280 State Drive, HC 1 North Waterbury, VT 05671-1080 Dear Commissioner Schatz, As you know, the House Committee on Human Services has spent considerable time in the last few weeks taking testimony and engaging in discussions regarding compliance with parent-child contact orders regarding children in need of care or supervision during the current declared state of emergency. The Committee understands the tremendous pressure you and your staff are under and the extraordinary steps you are taking to see that children who are in the custody of DCF are safe and well- cared for during the COVID-19 outbreak. While our committee believes that the safest approach for everyone during the state of emergency is to replace in-person contact with remote or virtual visits as recommended by Vermont Department of Health Commissioner Levine on March 25, 2020, we understand there may be some instances, taken on a case-by-case basis, where in-person contact may critical to staying on the path to family reunification and can be effectuated in a safe manner. To this end, we ask that DCF use the Vermont Department of Health’s most recent guidance regarding COVID-19 best practices to develop specific written guidance for DCF staff, foster parents, natural parents, and others who may participate in or facilitate in-person parent-child contact during the declared state of emergency.
