2024 VT Governor's race: on Social Security


Esther Charlestin: More people retiring than entering the workforce

Q: So what are the key issues that you feel need to be addressed, not only on the campaign trail, but as governor?

A: The things that come to mind for me is workforce. We have a lot more people retiring than we do entering the workforce. We have towns who are recruiting people to move there and be a part of the community. And that's a problem as we think about where Vermont will be 20 years from now. I also think about climate change, the floods that happened over the summer. It won't be the last time and are we ready? What things do we have in place to make sure we're in a good space? And of course, housing.
