Rep. Balint on the issues
"We have to shift our thinking a little bit about what Vermont communities can look like, and maybe we have a little bit more denser housing," said the state's sole Congressional representative Becca Balint. Speaking to students at VTSU in Castleton, she said a "wave" of people are going to move here due to the "climate emergency." The lack of housing, she said, is the "biggest impediment" to the state's economic growth.

Stern warning
"If you try drugs, you don't know what you're taking," due to "tons of adulterants." That was the frightening message from Adam Namm of the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission. Ambassador Namm said traffickers now use AI to intensify their products' potency. "That may eventually lessen the use of illicit drugs, because people may be scared off, not knowing what they're getting."
