Scott vetoes Legislature’s latest attempt at healthcare reform
Governor Phil Scott vetoed S.190, a Vermont healthcare bill aiming to accelerate premium savings for public school employees and Affordable Care Act marketplace users through reference-based pricing. Scott argued the bill unfairly targeted specific groups, opting instead for broader reforms, while supporters, including Rep. Alyssa Black, criticized the veto as vengeful.
