We have the power

To the Editor,
On car trips through New England, my dad used to say that he could always tell when he was in Vermont because there weren’t any billboards blocking the beautiful views. He instilled in me a love of Vermont so strong that I couldn’t help but move here for school. 
I’m currently a sophomore at Bennington College. Like Dad, I appreciate the steps Vermont has taken to maintain its natural landscapes - including the state Senate’s recent passage of S. 113.
