Krowinski has been a member of the Legislature since 2012, and has navigated a variety of complex legislative matters during her time as speaker.
As Vermont’s legislative session comes to a close, Jill Krowinski, the House Speaker representing Burlington, has made it known that she will not seek reelection this fall. Her announcement came on Thursday, marking the end of her tenure in a role she has held since 2021.
Krowinski, who has been a member of the Legislature since 2012, has navigated a variety of complex legislative matters during her time as speaker. Recently, she oversaw the introduction of a significant childcare proposal in 2023 and played a role in discussions surrounding the Clean Heat Standard, along with efforts to reform education funding over the past two years.
The Vermont Democratic Party will see shifts in its leadership, with Krowinski joining other notable figures, including Senate President Phil Baruth, who have also chosen to step back as the upcoming election season approaches. Notably, the Democrats experienced a setback last year, losing their supermajority in the House.
As the political landscape changes, this announcement from Krowinski signals a noteworthy turn in Vermont's legislative leadership.
