The Progressive Party And The Governor

Toby Talbot

Fri 6/14/13 Noon & 7PM The Vermont Progressive Party is disappointed with Governor Shumlin. They don't appreciate his stance against reforming the state's income tax system, and they didn't love his budget this year.  Progressive Party Chair Martha Abbott and House Caucus leader Chris Pearson join Bob Kinzel to discuss whether they will continue to support Governor Shumlin and where the Progressive Party goes from here.

Leave your comments about the Progressives here, or email vermontedition@vpr.net.

Also on the show, we'll talk to VPR's John Dillon about the growing controversy over Governor Shumlin's land deal.

Bob Kinzel has been covering the Vermont Statehouse since 1981 — longer than any continuously serving member of the Legislature. With his wealth of institutional knowledge, he answers your questions on our series, "Ask Bob."
