Issue Position: Reduce Government Regulations so Businesses Can Prosper and Hire More People

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2012

I started a business here in Vermont and grew it to maturity, employing hundreds. I know what entrepreneurs need from government: get out of the way! And I know reduced tax rates stimulate business, which creates more jobs…which generates more tax revenue. But Vermont government policies restrain existing businesses and kill job development. Those same policies fail to attract new businesses to our state that could bring new jobs. So, I'll crack down on "No Growth" attitudes in our regulatory agencies, I'll work to lower taxes and permit fees, and I'll personally go hunting nationwide for businesses to relocate here. I'll change the "business UN-friendly" environment in Vermont because I want the next generation of Vermonters to be able to achieve their dreams right here.
