Senator Bernie Sanders has been vocal in his opposition of the proposed wind power moratorium in the state. He's also been outspoken about high gasoline prices that Vermonters are paying and about the new filibuster rules in the Senate.
We hear from Senator Sanders on these issues as well as gun control and Veterans' and seniors' benefits.
Also on the program, Today is Vermont Writes Day, so students in Vermont are being encouraged to spend 7 minutes today putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard. The event is sponsored by the Young Writers Project. We hear from project's director GeffGevalt.
