Vote For VSEA-Endorsed Candidates In Tuesday’s General Election

Tuesday, November 8, is Election Day, and, to all members and retirees who have not yet voted, VSEA is encouraging you to review your union’s list of endorsed candidates in the 2022 general election.

“This is an outstanding group of committed, pro-state employee candidates whom we feel we can rely on to stand with us when the going gets tough,” says VSEA President Aimee Bertrand Towne.

VSEA’s member-driven endorsement process involves multiple stages of review of the elective and legislative history of candidates, and of questionnaires crafted by VSEA members.

1st Annual Will Wells Memorial Food Drive Challenge

VSEA is pleased to invite VSEA Chapters statewide to participate in the first-ever Will Wells Memorial Food Drive Challenge!

As in years, past VSEA is again challenging every VSEA Chapter and its members to raise as much money as possible between now and December 31 to provide meals to a “virtual food drive” for the Vermont Foodbank. Let’s see which VSEA Chapter can raise the most money for this very worthwhile cause that benefits so many Vermont families during especially difficult times. Again, the VSEA Board of Trustees voted to start each Chapter off with a $200 donation. 

The total amount of money VSEA donated to the Foodbank in 2021 was $7,000, and VSEA’s Chittenden Chapter raised the most for the second year in a row!

VSEA Corrections Unit Leaders Demand Staffing Crisis Response from Gov. Scott

MONTPELIER, Vt.— Vermont State Employees’ Association (VSEA) Corrections Unit leaders representing frontline staff in Vermont’s correctional facilities statewide are demanding to meet with Gov. Scott to discuss what plan he has—if any—to end excessive overtime and increased workloads due to a years-long staffing crisis that continues to erode employee morale and drag the Corrections Department down.   

Union leaders signed a letter that was sent this morning to Gov. Scott, and they are demanding a plan from the Governor to immediately end the staffing shortfalls that have resulted in 16-hour shifts, mandatory hospital coverage, and staff being constantly on-call. The letter notes that Probation and Parole staff are routinely called in on their days off.
