Seasoned progressive Becca Balint is the first woman and openly LGBT+ person to represent her home state of Vermont. Representative Balint's grandfather was killed in the Holocaust, and her father’s family saw firsthand the cruelties people can perpetrate when the law does not protect the most vulnerable, or when people turn away from each other and demonize one another.
A deep sense of justice, empathy and service has guided Rep. Balint’s career from the beginning – first as an educator who taught middle school in Windham County for 14 years, then as an activist and State Senator and ultimately as the President Pro Tempore in 2021.
While Majority Leader of the Vermont State Senate, Becca led the passage of the first gun safety laws in the state’s history, aimed at keeping Vermont children, communities and survivors of abuse safe. Becca also worked tirelessly in the state senate to secure the largest housing investment in Vermont in decades to rebuild housing stock and expand middle income housing.
