Why are you supporting the basing of the F-35 in densely populated Chittenden County, rendering affordable housing (1300 houses in Winooski and South Burlington) "incompatible with residential use"? (the plane is four times louder than the F-16)

Vermonters do not want that death machine in their backyard. Vermonters oppose the futile wars that the U.S. is engaged in.

LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE!

... and a mechanism to make Supreme Court Judges accountable for their wrong doing.
Why there is no recall option for the Supreme Court Judges? This will make them accoutable for their mischief and biases.
You can reverse Citizens United, but they will keep on doing things like this.
