Montpelier, Vt. – Thursday, Governor Phil Scott’s and Governor Chris Sununu’s Administrations disclosed the responses Vermont and New Hampshire received to their joint request for information (RFI) on administering and insuring the Twin State Voluntary Leave Plan.
“We appreciate all the feedback we received from insurance carriers, which clearly demonstrate the merit of our approach,” said Governor Phil Scott. “Our goal in developing this initiative and working with our respective legislatures has been to establish a voluntary paid family leave program that is solvent, efficient with respect to administrative costs, affordable to workers, and balances policy goals with the expertise of the public and private sectors. The responses we received from the RFI indicate we are on the right track to meeting those objectives.”
