This is it! The Vermont House of Representatives is considering three critically important bills that will help protect the water, forests and farmland in Vermont and tackle climate change. There are only a few weeks left in the legislative session, and we need your help at this crucial time to ensure these bills become law!
The bills include:
• S.304 — A bill that will help protect Vermont’s primary drinking water source — groundwater — from depletion, privatization and contamination. Help make this happen. Take action now on S.304!
• S.311 — A bill to strengthen the Current Use Program — one of Vermont’s most successful forest and farmland conservation tools. Help make this happen. Take action now on S.311!
• S.350 — A bill that takes one step further in Vermont’s efforts to reduce the state’s global warming pollution and generate clean, green, independent renewable energy supplies. Help make this happen. Take action now on S.350!
Help ensure that Vermont seizes this important opportunity to pass forward-looking legislation! The Senate has decisively passed all three of these bills. Now is the time to let your House member know that each of these efforts represent a significant step forward to protecting our rural economy and safeguarding the state’s invaluable natural resources.
