Northeast Kingdom Legislative Breakfast-Online

Date: Monday, January 31, 2022
Time: 8:00 am - 9:00 pm

The Northeast Kingdom Chamber will hold its first legislative update of the year, by Zoom, on Monday, Jan. 31, from 8 to 9 a.m.  The program starts with a short update from the chamber, continues with legislator reports addressing key issues and concludes with a question-and-answer period at the end of the event.

Expected issues to be discussed include Covid-19 and its impact, health care, labor and economic development issues, taxes and fiscal policies, not to mention the many issues that arise during the session. Laural Ruggles will serve as co-host of the online meeting along with NEK Chamber Director Darcie McCann.

After much deliberation, the chamber has decided to go online until the Covid numbers go down. This format will allow constituents to receive updates from legislators until we believe it is safe to meet again. Until further notice, upcoming legislative meetings will be held online until further notice.

The format of the gatherings will remain the same, despite the online component of the forum, including the question-and-answer period. In the past, we have made it clear to our guests that they are encouraged to ask questions of the legislators but they will not be allowed to grandstand on issues or be disrespectful to the legislators. It was not tolerated at our previous sessions and will not be on these online forums either. We understand these are troubling and challenging times but we request civility from participants.
