State Chapter: Vermont

Welcome to FreedomWorks Vermont!

Our mission is to turn ideas and policies into action. Those ideas can never succeed unless ordinary citizens are willing to stand up and fight for them...

Our goal is to help ordinary citizens play a greater role in the government decisionmaking process, letting no cause involving their own rights and freedoms be lost by default.

Let's work together to fight for less government, lower taxes and more freedom in Vermont!

Join Vermont FreedomWorks, where our members are creating a strong grassroots presence across the entire state. Help us win the fight!
