If they receive the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, Massachusetts U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren and Vermont U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders may have a difficult time against incumbent President Donald Trump, one new poll suggests.
The latest Zogby Analytics Survey found the sitting president has a 50 percent approval rating, including a 42 percent approval rating among independents. It also had Trump leading against every major Democratic politician running for the 2020 nomination.
In 2020, Vermont will have a new approach to attract people to move to the state: Pay them.
As of November 2019, the state had a mere 2.3 percent unemployment rate, making it difficult for employers in the state to find qualified job applicants. To combat this, legislation signed earlier this year means that those who move to the state to work and live in it full-time could receive up to $7,500 in grants to help cover the cost of moving, as NBC 5 Burlington reports. Independent contractors are ineligible for the program.
