Statements to Vermont Press on Vieques Vermont Delegations to Vieques Imagine being on an idyllic beach vacation, hearing thunder as soon as you arrive and thinking: this is going to ruin my vacation. You look at the sky and realize there are no clouds. The U.S. Navy is bombing! This is what a delegation of ten Vermonters experienced on our recent trip to the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico. The only difference is that we were not on vacation. We went to Vieques on August 16 in order to obtain firsthand, in-depth knowledge of the long and still continuing conflict between the U.S. Navy and the people of Vieques. Our group included educators, students, artists, a farmer, a state worker, an occupational therapist, and a psychologist. As Vermonters, the members of the delegation represent a state with a long history of participatory democracy and a commitment to social justice. Vermont was the first state to abolish slavery, to insist that a bill of rights be included in the U.S. Constitution, to criticize Senator Joseph McCarthy during the 1950s, and to pass a civil union bill. Despite the length and intensity of this conflict between the people of Vieques and the U.S. Navy, marked by ongoing protests, little information has been available in the U.S. news media. Yet protests in response to Navy activities have brought as many as 80,000 Puerto Rican people into the streets of San Juan to support the people of Vieques

Do Citizens Have a Right to Control Their Own Lives? The Vermont Manifesto If your nation is making itself into a big target for hate, and if its apparent priorities run counter to your values, would you consider rebelling or seceding? What if your very survivial depended on it? Here is an interesting article, reprinted last summer by the Texas Observer after originally running in "Vermont Green Mountains - A Voice." by Thomas H. Naylor A specter is haunting America the specter of technofascism a global system of imperialism in which ostensibly free individuals allow Corporate America and the United States government to manipulate and control their lives through money, markets, media, and technology, resulting in the loss of political will, civil liberties, and traditional culture. We the people of Vermont believe the United States of America has become too big, too powerful, too intrusive, too materialistic, too high-tech, too globalized, too militarized, too imperialistic, too violent, too undemocratic, and too unresponsive to the needs of individual citizens and small communities. National and Congressional elections are bought and sold to the highest bidder. State and local governments aasume too little responsibility for the solution of their own social, economic, and political problems, willingly abdicating their responsibilities. Our nation suffers from megalomania an obsession with personal power, influence, grandeur, and wealth and the obsessive-compulsive worship of anything that is big big government, big cities, big business, big schools, big science, big weapons, big computer networks, and big political unions.

Libby Sternberg, executive director: LSternberg@aol.com LAWSUIT FILED TO OPEN CHOICE TO RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS On Thursday, March 20, Richard Komer, lawyer with the public interest law firm the Institute for Justice, came to Vermont to announce the filing of a suit in federal court designed to open the door to tuitioning to religious schools in Vermont. The suit is aimed at overturning the 1999 "Chittenden" decision by the Vermont Supreme Court which said that Vermont's constitution is more restrictive than the federal constitution on issues of church and state, and thus tuitioning to religious schools is unconstitutional in Vermont. Komer, however, says that the federal constitution "trumps" local constitutions, and in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's 2002 ruling on the constitutionality of vouchers to religious schools, the Chittenden decision is ripe for revisiting.

The group approved a resolution calling upon the Legislature to pass a school choice plan, according to a Burlington Free Press article. "The reason we are going for school choice is we have been knocking our heads against a stone wall: the refusal of the education administration to own up to the fact that racism exists," said Paij Wadley-Bailey, volunteer director of the 9-year-old anti-racism group. "We can't keep doing business as usual. We can't sit by and do nothing," she said. "If one child is harassed in the schools, that is too many."

At A Glance Rutland County Southern Vermont State ... Place an ad Debate resumes on 'gay agenda' bill April 5, 2001 By TRACY SCHMALER Vermont Press Bureau MONTPELIER - A House committee is scheduled to take up a controversial bill today that would prohibit school employees from encouraging or promoting homosexual conduct. The House Education Committee is considering the measure as part of a package of bills that propose various changes to curricula in Vermont schools. Rep. Howard Crawford, R-Burke, the chairman of the committee, said his purpose was not to decide if there was a so-called "homosexual agenda" percolating in the schools, as some of the sponsors of the bill purport. Rather, Crawford said he was focusing on the basic question raised by all of the bills: What role, if any, should the state play in mandating what schools teach students? "What we're looking at is whether to take the decision away from the school district," he said. "My personal opinion on this is that it should be done on the local level."

At A Glance Rutland County Southern Vermont State ... Place an ad Educators testify before House panel Vermont Press Bureau MONTPELIER - State educators told lawmakers Thursday that local school officials have significant discretion when it comes to teaching certain subjects including sexuality in the classroom. The House Education Committee continued to hear testimony on a series of bills that would mandate certain curriculum items in state schools. The most controversial proposal before the committee is a bill to ban school employees from encouraging, promoting or sanctioning homosexuality. Educators said the state set out a framework of standards for various schools to use as a guideline, but left open the curriculum structure to individual school officials for subjects. The committee is also considering proposals that would require schools to teach military training, Vermont history and government and civics. Testimony is expected to continue Tuesday with the superintendent of Spaulding High School, said Rep. Howard Crawford, R-Burke, chairman of the committee. A student at the high school claimed last year that he was subject to ridicule after he questioned a teacher's statement about homosexuality. The student and his parents have already testified before the committee.
