AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Social Media Accountability: The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear Meta’s bid to stop Vermont’s lawsuit over claims Instagram was designed to be addictive and harm teens’ mental health—so the case can move forward. Public Health & Environment: Vermont became the first state to ban paraquat, a Parkinson’s-linked herbicide, with limited orchard exemptions until 2030 and annual reporting requirements. Mental Health + Criminal Justice: Lawmakers are still wrestling with a last-minute plan for a short-term forensic facility for people found incompetent to stand trial or who fall through outpatient mental health cracks. Access to Care: Rutland County Health Partners launched a free mobile clinic to reach uninsured and underinsured patients where they are. Workforce Development: CEDRR and partners held a “Workforce In Motion” equipment rodeo to connect middle and high school students to local trade careers. Community Support: Colchester-Milton Rotary’s “Fill the Truck” drive topped up local food shelves amid rising demand.
