July 11, 2024, in reaction to overnight floods: “It is beyond heartbreaking to see more devastating floods in the same communities exactly one year later—yet, this is our new reality. So many homeowners, farms, businesses, and communities are still working to recover from last July’s flood, and this will only set Vermont’s recovery back. Climate change is wreaking havoc on our state.”
