A Different Pro-Business Agenda

by Andrea on Jan 10th, 2011

Vermont is a good place to do business, say the overwhelming majority of members in Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility. Executive Director Andrea Cohen and Public Policy Manage Daniel Barlow explain how VBSR members say that Vermont's business climate can be further improved--and the answers may be surprising. They're looking for universal, more affordable healthcare, not connected with employment, plus investment in education, public transportation, and more. And it's a business organization whose members want Vermont Yankee closed as scheduled in 2012 and support incentives for renewable energy.
Cohen also mentions VBSR's first "Buy Local First" coupon book, chock full of coupons good at businesses owned and controlled by Vermonters.
