Report Gives Vermont Delegation High Grades for Poverty Votes
Boston.com reports that a new report by the Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law has given "Vermont's congressional delegation high marks for its voting record on poverty issues." Indeed, "U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Peter Welch each got an A+ and Senator Patrick Leahy received an A." Notably, "Vermont is among just four states -- including Hawaii, Massachusetts and Rhode Island -- whose delegation received all As."
