About

Vermont Senate Democrats are working to build a Vermont where people of all backgrounds can live, work, and thrive. Vermont Senate Democrats are committed to equity and opportunity for all Vermonters—fighting for strong public education, environmental protection, affordable housing, accessible health care, childcare, and paid family and medical leave.

The Vermont Democratic Party’s Senate Campaign Project is a full-time effort to elect and maintain a strong Democratic majority in the Vermont Senate. Led by Majority Leader Kesha Ram Hinsdale and Assistant Majority Leader Becca White, Vermont Senate Democrats recruit, train, and support candidates committed to these values.
