Jason Gibbs Quotations

Frankly, one has to wonder why they would want to poison the well so early in the legislative session.

The governor will outline a comprehensive plan to offer Vermont residents an opportunity to receive a higher education here in Vermont so that they can then work here and raise a family. It's a proposal that will affect an entire generation of school students in the state of Vermont.

The governor's vision is to make Vermont affordable for Vermonters by offering a scholarship program that is going to put a college education within reach to thousands of people who currently don't have access to it.

The governor still believes these changes should apply to all branches and levels. The House did take a very, very small step in the right direction by eliminating the privilege for the Legislature.

The governor recognizes the need to make Vermont an affordable place to live and raise a family. We do need to address day to day issues, but we've got to think about the future down the road.

The governor is never particularly enthusiastic about raising any tax.

The governor is concerned with a crisis of affordability. He will target economic development efforts that are focused on building generations of opportunity.

Adam Quinn is a paid political operative whose mission is to politically undermine the governor. This was more about him acting as a political operative to score political points.

The kind of political gimmick that this coalition is trying to sell is the reason we did not get meaningful health care reform last year. We are not going to engage in this silliness.

It's a thoughtful recognition of the amount that taxpayers contribute to the wellbeing of the state.
