  • Labor, Democrats and the Third Way
    LABOR RESEARCH REVIEW #22 Labor, Democrats and the Third Way • Ellen David Friedman This past winter the Massachusetts AFL-CIO made a striking gesture. Still smarting from the battle over the North American Free Trade Agreement, the state federation decided to withhold routine PAC con­ tributions from Congressional members who had voted for NAFTA. The decision stood in stark contrast to the many decades in which orga­ nized labor offered fairly unconditional, uncritical support to the Demo­ cratic Party and its candidates, even when Democrats failed to behave as allies. And while the Massachusetts example is singular and perhaps not an example of broader currents, it should be seen in light of other phenomena: the dissolution of rank-and-file unionists as a predictable Democratic voting block; the assertive distancing by the Democratic Party from its traditional constituencies (for example, acceding to the popular image that minorities, women, and workers are "special inter­ ests"); the emergence of H. Ross Perot and his surprising appeal to some sectors of unionized voters; and the growing interest among local labor leadership in Labor Party Advocates, a pre-labor party organization. This is a moment in which old certainties about organized labor and the Democrats are becoming less certain; it is a circumstance that progressives within the labor movement should welcome and work with. • Ellen David Friedman is an organizer with the Vermont National Education Association. \ 76 Labor Research Review #22 The possibilities for shaping a different relationship between the two seem to be increasing—whether the goal is to compel the Democratic Party towards greater respect for labor's agenda, or to build a new party founded on labor's agenda.

  • Putney Town Report
    2019 Putney Town Report For the year ending June 30, 2019 Annual Town Meeting & Australian Ballot Vote Tuesday March 3, 2020 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM Putney Central School The Town of Putney Selectboard takes great pride in dedicating the 2019 Town Report to: JD and Jeanne McCliment In 2003 Jim (JD) and Jeanne were visiting Putney and found our local pub (formerly The Old Welsh Tavern), for sale. They decided to purchase and beautify the property and they turned it into a wonderful family run business (with their son, Emry as head chef). The pub has been a much-needed gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. The importance of having this vibrant social center in town cannot be underestimated and its closing leaves a big void. Jim and Jeanne have always been very community minded. Together with other business owners in town they founded the Putney Business Association. The idea behind this was to revitalize the profile of the town by trying to increase exposure and marketing to people living outside of town. They also worked on beautifying downtown by doing things such as installing and maintaining flower boxes along the Sacketts Brook bridge. In addition to this, Jim and Jeanne have been involved in raising money for various local organizations. Since 2015 Putney Charities has contributed over $84,000 to local non-profits with a focus on food and housing security and child well- being. Most of the funds were raised by selling rip tickets (pull tabs) at JD McCliment’s Pub, and ultimately the regulars who played.

  • Gender Parity Index 2018 Report GENDER PARITY INDEX 2018 REPRESENTWOMEN Representwomen
    Gender Parity Index 2018 Report GENDER PARITY INDEX 2018 REPRESENTWOMEN RepresentWomen A thriving democracy is within our reach, but we must level the playing field for women candidates across the racial, political, and geographic spectrum so that our nation’s rich diversity is reflected in our elected and appointed bodies. Electing more women to every level of government will strengthen our democracy by making it more representative, reviving bipartisanship and collaboration, encouraging a new style of leadership, and building greater trust in our elected bodies. The Gender Parity Index Report 2018 is an update to our State of Women’s Representation series, which documents and analyzes women’s representation in all fifty states and the U.S territories. It makes the case for structural changes that are necessary to achieve parity in our lifetimes.

Not in Vermont State of the State Address Includes Focus on Economic Recovery Legislature Formalizes New Leadership Little Change in Committee Chair Assignments Federal Funding Flows into Vermont Explainer: Accessing Legislative Hearings Remotely Up Next In Case You Missed It Civility: Is it Too Much to Ask? Not in Vermont By Vermont Chamber President Betsy Bishop The contrast between Vermont and Washington, D.C., politics has never been more pronounced than it was this week. In Vermont, we ushered in a new legislative session with a trio of women leaders with new ideas, energy, and a profound sense of serving the State of Vermont to develop thoughtful, balanced public policy. Lt. Governor Molly Gray, Speaker of the House Jill Krowinski, and President Pro Tem Becca Balint begin this unusual, COVID-marked session with a pledge to work with Governor Phil Scott and his Administration to get Vermont’s economy on a path to recovery. While these leaders are from different parties, the spirit of cooperation and willingness to collaborate has always been present under the Golden Dome in Montpelier. What we witnessed on Wednesday in our nation’s capital was not only the total opposite, but it was also an attempt to subvert our core democratic principles. While I’m hopeful that President-elect Biden can unite us, it will take strong will to heed that call. I am grateful that I live in Vermont and work in the Vermont State House, and this year, while I will miss walking through the corridors among inspiring artwork, the Hall of Inscriptions, and the Cedar Creek Room, I still will still be fortunate to work on public policy with many people who share the same values.
