I am absolutely disgusted that all three of #Brattleboro's #VTHouse delegation voted for this bill that guts what few tenant protections #VT law provides, especially at this time in history, with our communty suffering a severe #housing shortage and #homelessness crisis.

Emilie Kornheiser, Molly Burke, and Ian Goodnow, *shame on you*!

#Vermonters, if you value sanity, please contact your #VTSenate and urge them to vote against H.772. #VTpol #VTpoli

A Vermont landlord pursues debts from tenants. His wife now helps write eviction law.

For years, Rep. Debbie Dolgin and her husband brought cases before an assistant judge who issued arrest warrants to collect unpaid debts from their tenants. As a major landlord-tenant bill is actively debated, Dolgin says she sees no conflict in her roles.

Meanwhile, all three of the #Brattleboro delegation to the #VTHouse voted to pass H.772, a bill that eviscerates tenant protections in #Vermont, which are meager eough as they stand. H.772 is a huge giveaway to #landlords.

I am extremely disappointed in Ian Goodnow (Windham-9), Molly Burke (Windham-8), and Emilie Kornheiser (Windham-7), today.

This past weekend, Rep. Burke announced her retirement. She will not seek re-election this November.

As written, this bill guts tenants’ procedural due process rights in a variety of ways.
