Thank you for visiting my website. I am a Vermont State Senator for the Addison District — Addison County, Buels Gore, Huntington, and Rochester. I was first elected in 2018, and am running for reelection in 2022. In the Senate I serve as Chair of the Government Operations Committee and a member of the Health & Welfare Committee. You can visit my official legislative webpage for information about my committees, votes, and bills. I write regular updates about my work in the Senate and community. Feel free to subscribe to my constituent email newsletter or contact me at rhardy@leg.state.vt.us.

My very best,

2022 Legislative Accomplishments

The 2022 Legislative Session was monumental. We passed historic legislation, including an $8.3 billion state budget, that will have a transformational impact on every sector, region, and community in Vermont.

Commitments

I am asking for your support, your vote, and your trust. This is no small request, and I want you to know that I continue to work hard to earn all three. I did this as a school board member, and do the same as a state senator.
