Senate Hearing on Big Oil Deception: New Fossil Fuel Industry Documents and a Call for Climate Accountability
A Courageous Victory: Vermont Climate Superfund Bill Passes the House and Senate
Climate|October 01, 2024
After the Vermont House passed the Climate Superfund Act this week, it is the closest a bill like this has ever been to becoming law. This is a major victory for our grantee, Vermont Public Interest Group, that led a so-far successful legislative campaign. Now the bill goes back to the Senate for a final review before it is delivered to Governor Phil Scott. Governor Scott might veto it, in which case the legislature would need tw0-thirds of the members in both the house and senate to override his veto. As of now, there is enough legislative support to override a veto.
