Jonathan for Barre

Platform, Position, and Policy

Economic Security

People in Barre and across Vermont need a living wage. We need to make it easier for people to access 3SquaresVT, WIC, and other social services. We need to increase government financial support for small businesses and nonprofits. There is a lot of money out there hidden behind red tape and confusing paperwork. I know from experience!

Food Security

Many organizations in and around Barre work hard to ensure that no one is hungry in our state. We need to make sure everyone has enough to eat. We can do this by making it easier for food security groups to have food and supplies. Annual, sustained state support for these groups is critical. We can also work to end "food deserts" in Vermont, and in downtown Barre by opening supermarkets and coops. Supporting local growers and distributors is essential.

Equity and Representation

We can work to ensure that everyone has a seat at the table. Disenfranchised groups should have a say in how we write laws and policy that affect them. We can end policies, laws, and practices that inhibit inclusion and fairness.

Infrastructure

It should be easier for Vermont communities to fund small, impactful projects. My experience working for many Vermont towns has shown how confusing it is to get support from the State. It can be much easier and faster to fund something like a roadway sign. We also need faster, fairer internet for Barre and all Vermont towns.
