John Rodgers of Glover is a former Democratic Legislator of 16 years who recently switched to the Republican Party. He's running for the nomination in the August 13 primary against 2022 LG candidate and conservative activist Greg Thayer. Paul Bean interviewed him Thursday, August 8 at Bean Studios in Northfield. "When the Global Solutions Act - or what the heck ever it was called - was introduced, I knew it was going to lead to a carbon tax. I was one of the guys fighting it all the way in committee and on the floor," Rodgers said. "It's an absurd bill. It's like an illusion....all's they're doing is breaking the backs of Vermonters financially."
