Vermont High School Students: Senator Sanders wants to hear from You!
The Vermont high school State of the Union essay contest is now in its tenth year! I put this contest together to create an opportunity for Vermont high school students to be actively engaged in our democratic process and think about solutions to the major problems facing our country. Over the past nine years, more than 4,000 students from across Vermont participated, writing essays about critically important issues like climate change, access to mental health care, and the rising cost of college. I cannot wait to see what our students write about this year. The deadline to submit an essay is January 8, 2020.
