The governor has vetoed a bill that would have overhauled a hotel voucher program used to shelter people experiencing homelessness, saying it's too expensive.

The following statement can be attributed to Alexandra Karambelas, Policy Advocate of the ACLU of Vermont.

Getting a housing voucher is just the first hurdle to exit homelessness. Moving in can take months as people face delays.

Scott has been vocal about his opposition to expanding the Hotel-Motel program, saying that it costs Vermont taxpayers too much money and does not provide enough benefit for unhoused people.

The bill would have marked a fundamental pivot in how Vermont approaches homelessness, which has spiked amid a crushing housing shortage and rising housing costs.
