I’ve known many state employees over the years who have been retaliated against for attempting to follow the law and their statutory obligations. The retaliation comes from upper management or political appointees who don’t want to look bad, admit there’s a problem, or be subject to legislative scrutiny. I could easily believe the people you’re dealing with are legitimately concerned about retaliation of this nature. On the inside, Vermont state government is an ugly, ugly system.
