August 30, 2010Burlington, Vt – The Democratic candidates for governor responded to Brian Dubie’s economic plan today. The candidates highlighted their own substantive economic development plans and called on Dubie to issue a plan with substance, not just tired soundbites and slogans.
“Brian Dubie’s plan continues the Douglas administration’s policy of decimating state government, which will not help us to revitalize our economy,” Racine said. “Brian Dubie will sacrifice all that makes Vermont a place where we are proud to live. Our environmental quality of life and our commitment to our neighbors in need are critical to us economically as well as socially. We need the right economic and social climate for our small businesses to grow and prosper.”

I'm For Doug
Claudia Pringles, Montpelier
