The vote came after the Legislature reconvened Monday to try to override Gov. Phil Scott's vetoes of seven bills. Each chamber needed two-thirds of those present to vote to override to be successful in passing the bills
But the Legislature failed to override Gov. Phil Scott's veto of a data privacy bill that was considered to be among the strongest in the country. It would have allowed consumers to file civil lawsuits against companies that break certain privacy rules. Senate President Pro Tem Philip Baruth, a Democrat, thanked colleagues at the end of the day, calling it"an incredibly productive day, a long day and an exhausting day in many ways but with brilliant results."
The drug overdose prevention law enacted by the Legislature allows for a safe injection site in Vermont's largest city of Burlington where people can use narcotics under the supervision of trained staff and be revived if they take too much. The new law allocates $1.1 million in fiscal year 2025 to the Vermont Department of Health to award grants to the city of Burlington to establish such a center. The money will come from the Opioid Abatement Special Fund made up of Vermont's share of a national settlement with drug manufacturers and distribution companies. Before then, the Health Department is required to contract with a researcher or consultant to study the impact of the overdose prevention center pilot program.
