Five students from the University of Vermont and three from St. Michael’s College will join the Legislative Monitoring Collaborative for the 2023 legislative session. The program with partner organizations operates with financial support from the National Life Group. Interns will spend time at the State House, gaining exposure to the legislative process, the key players in policy discussions, and the business leaders involved in shaping the Vermont Chamber’s priorities. As policy initiatives are debated and move through the legislative process, these students will complement the work of the Vermont Chamber advocacy team by attending committee hearings to develop real-time coverage of witness testimony and legislative proceedings. With a highly anticipated 2023 legislative session, the robust team of Collaborative interns will be crucial to increasing the capacity of our advocacy work. Keep an eye out in future State to Main editions to learn about each one of these interns.
