November 8, 2018
Protests are brewing in Vermont following the outing of federal Attorney General Jeff Sessions, as concerns over the safety of the Trump-Russia investigation grow.
Thirteen separate protests are planned in Vermont, and are expected to be carried out Nov. 8 at 5 p.m. according to MoveOn, a progressive public policy advocacy group. The protests in Vermont are linked to a national call to protest from MoveOn, according to their website.
Protests are expected in Burlington, Montpelier, Rutland and several other large towns in Vermont. On the website associated with the Burlington event, over 1,000 protestors are listed as planning on attending.
The Burlington protest will begin at the Post Office on Elmwood Ave and move to City Hall for a rally, according to the website.
