[ applause ] >> i am as honored and humbled to stand before you today as i was giving my first inaugural address in 2011. that day i spoke with affection about our last governor from putney, george akin. three quarters of a century ago he stood before this body, and he reflected on the challenges and progress of

that's vermonters. together we aspire rightfully for a brighter future, and vermonters deserve leadership that is forward looking and unafraid. that's right. while some want vermont to join the majority of governors in our nation in closing its borders to the syrian refugees fleeing violence and death, i believe vermont must not abandon its long heritage of being a welcoming state to those who are escaping unimaginable horror, unimaginable horror, to seek a better life. how many of us can claim that our own family's arrival in america, fleeing famine, religious oppression, dictatorship or war was not a motivation to come here? vermonters have a long tradition and a proud tradition of rejecting racism, bigotry, bullying, intolerance, and fear. you know, when mccarthyism reared its ugly head in america, senator akin cautioned his own republican party that sought, and i quote, victory through the selfish political exploitation of fear, bigotry, ignorance, and intolerance. more than half a century later, th

burlington is home to the vermont air national gad. it's scheduled to receive 18 f-35s by the year 2020. it will be the first air national guard unit in america to get the plane. replacing a unit of aging f-16s. the burlington airport has homes built right up to its perimeter. there are towns on both ends of its runway. williston to the north and willusky to the south. a working class town. >> i've been in the backyards and it's astounding how low the planes are over their homes. you could probably recognize people in the cockpit. that's how low they are. >> reporter: to get a better sense of greco's concerns, consider the record of the f-16. since its introduction in 1975, the u.s. air force has lost more than 320 of them in crashes and mishaps. out of a fleet of 2230, that's one in seven. >> if something happens with takeoff and landing of the f-35 it is probable that it will land in this area here. it's a recipe for a colossal disaster. it's almost horrendous to even think about. >> reporter: contrast burlington's airport with luke

in vermont we've seen a 65% increase in the number of vermonters getting treatment for their addiction in the last couple years. and, governor, i thank you for that. it's great progress. but we know on any given day there are hundreds more find themselves on waiting lists. the patients in rural corners of my state travel hours just to get their medication. so seeing senator shaheen, i co-sponsored her bill to fund additional public outreach and treatment in recovery and law enforcement efforts. proud to co-sponsor the comprehensive addiction and recovery act. hope the committee will report that bill soon. we can talk about it. we can have bills. we can have resolutions. let's spend the money. spend the money for things outside our country, let's spend the money for things in our country. this is a great danger and we should spend money on it. so i will close by thanking governor shumlin. he's been a national, local leader on this issue. the governor gave in his state of the state address in the past, instead of saying everything's going great, we've got all this, as most governors do,

in vermont. i have known him for 25 years. we have been engaged on so many levels and when i ran for governor and ran for congress, it was a kind of agenda that bernie sanders would be talking progressives, both liberals. he might've been a democratic socialist, but you know what? we kind of walked on the same drumbeat. we would always communicate. hillary clinton i've known since 1991. you know why you go i ran for governor when bill and hillary were running as copresident, two for the price of one. i was the first woman to get the nomination for governor in new hampshire history. hillary clinton and bill clinton used to follow me into the rooms, amy, because i got a bigger crowd because they were the third string democrats that nobody expected to win the nomination. so i know them. i have run with clinton in 1992, iran with clinton in 1996. i am wanted tell you, it was always an interesting conversation when i was running. when i was running a 1992, bill clinton was running on a middle-class ta

and i love the stuff you're doing in vermont. with the vermont recovery network. but i didn't hear in the five-point plan, what is hillary's plan or your plan to support the peer recovery support and protect the investment in treatment? mr. shumlin: that's a great question. first of all, thanks for all that you're doing and for your courage in speaking up. the beauty of hillary's plan is that she really listened to what i and others said and said, listen, it's not -- i'm not going to come up with a federal program that duplicates the good work that vermont and new hampshire and other states are doing. instead, you send me your plan and, assuming that it's real and it's making progress, i'll send you 80 cents on the dollar for every concurrent program that you're funding. that is our big problem as governors. we're scraping pennies together to fight this battle. so what hillary's saying, is states innovate, states get it right, those states that are making a difference will get 0 cent on the dollar -- 80 cents on the dollar, federal match, for all of the above, inc

i remember a couple of years ago downing bennington, vermont -- down in bennington, vermont, there was a principal who was fierce. she almost refused to allow any of her kids to drop off from school. she took this very personally, as good educators should. these mentors were kids. whatever it may be. she called up 3:00 in the morning saying, you will not drop out of school. don't do anything stupid. she had a very positive impact on the kids. that is what we have to do nationally. even some conservatives are catching on to this point. this is one area where we have seen conservatives and progressives coming together. who thinks it is a good idea to spend $80 billion per year having more people in jail than china does? nobody i know. what we should be doing is doing exactly what that principle was doing, and that is we should be putting our emphasis and money and education and jobs to young people, not jails or incarceration. it will save us lives, save us money. the aggressive perspective -- the progressive perspective, it is a conservative perspective. when i spoke about jobs, let me

my son and i were at home in vermont when we learned that justice scalia had passed and frankly we're stunned by the news. i did not of often agree with justice glia but he had a deep commitment to our constitution and we enjoyed a friendship for decades. he will be remembered by one of the most influential justices in modern history. while his family and all should have had a chance to mourn his passing i was shocked at the immediate wake of his death is so that republicans vote quickly to shut down the constitutionally mandated process to fill the vacancy left on the supreme court. within hours of his death been announced. they declared they would oppose any effort to confirm the next supreme court justice this year. i've served in this body longer than any member here, i have heard some shocking things during that time. but i was surprised by the political crass of these statements. before and nominee has even been named, some republicans reflectively decided to prematurely reject anyone, anyone nominated by the president. this impulsive rush to judgment and completely contrary to
