AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Act 181 Backlash: Vermont lawmakers voted to repeal parts of the 2024 land-use law, rolling back “Tier 3” and the “road rule” after rural opponents said the maps and reviews made even small projects too expensive. Gun Law Fight: Michigan AG Dana Nessel joined a multistate push against a USPS proposal that would allow mailing certain firearms, arguing the federal ban still stands. Privacy on the Road: A new report highlights how AI-enabled license-plate tracking is spreading fast, with Vermont among states facing pressure to set clear limits. Local Housing: Burlington green-lit a major South End development—$100 million for 205 apartments—with 20% slated as affordable. Education Under Strain: Read Vermont’s literacy push is at risk because the latest budget proposal doesn’t fund it. Community & Culture: Middlebury Hillel student leaders voted to rename the group, distancing from Hillel International amid Israel-related tensions. Public Safety: A Vermont drug dealer freed by Biden clemency is back in prison after arrest tied to a cocaine/fentanyl ring.
