Governor Shumlin Live

Governor Peter Shumlin is finishing his third and final term in office.

Governor Peter Shumlin has three months left in his final term in charge. But he still has some thoughts on the direction the state should take on key issues.

We hear the governor's thoughts about whether teachers should be prohibited from striking, if the Act 46 school consolidation law should be mandatory, if the state needs an ethics commission, and what he thinks about the All Player Waiver health care payment plan. We also hear why he has decided to fill a vacancy on the Vermont Supreme Court before he leaves office.

Broadcast live on Thursday, September 29, 2016 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
