To the Editor, 
In November, voters delivered a clear mandate; they elected common sense Vermont Republicans in dramatic fashion and asked us to focus on affordability, housing, education, and public safety. Vermont Republicans gained more legislative seats than the rest of the states, combined. Vermonters empowered the Senate and House Republican caucuses by breaking the supermajority and ensured that America’s most popular governor would be an equal at Montpelier’s negotiating table.
