Campaigns & Initiatives

Vermont has some of the strongest protections for civil rights and civil liberties in the country, but there is more we must do to counter those who seek to turn back the clock on the progress we have made together.

Mass incarceration has failed our state for too long, and building a bigger prison will not serve the needs of incarcerated people or Vermont communities. Tell your lawmakers to reject prison expansion.

Through thoughtful, evidence-driven reforms, we can advance racial and economic justice across the state and enable everyone who calls Vermont home to feel safer.

Tell your legislators to support two "shield laws" – H.89 and S.37 – to ensure that people who need reproductive and gender-affirming care can access it from Vermont providers, regardless of policies enacted in other states.

When a Vermont police officer violates someone’s rights, they should be held accountable for their actions -- and victims should be able to get the justice they deserve. Qualified immunity is a legal doctrine that prevents people who are victims of police misconduct from having their day in court.
