In a collaborative effort with the Vermont NEA and Vermont Trooper’s Association, VSEA is producing a series of webinars to update members and retirees about any and all developments with the newly formed Pension Task Force. The webinars are being held on the first Monday of every month, and all are encouraged to log in.
A photo of VSEA Board of Trustees member Dr. Leslie Matthews ran at the top of a story posted this week to VTDigger about a building moratorium being implemented around Lake Morey until there is a better understanding of the nutrient sources that are contributing to repeated cyanobacteria blooms.
