The process would include looking at what other states have done \u2013 Massachusetts in particular \u2013 to ensure in law an enhanced equity-focused process and that a significant share of TCI-P auction revenues support pollution-reducing strategies that serve lower income, overburdened communities.<br><br>This would help advance the TCI conversation from \u201cshould Vermont join TCI?\u201d to \u201cwhat are the possible benefits \u2013 and who are the prioritized beneficiaries \u2013 if Vermont joins TCI?\u201d The proposed Network Action Team could also analyze the potential benefits of the proposed investment approach, in terms of jobs, consumer savings, health benefits, etc., either as compared to a baseline or as compared to another investment strategy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/events-and-initiatives\/2021-ean-summit\/pitches\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8709\"><em>Return to 2021 EAN Summit \u2013 Pitch Overview Page<\/em><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developing a Plan for Effective and Equitable Investment of Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI) Revenue in Vermont Presented by: Jordan Giaconia (Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility) and Amanda Carlson (Capstone [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":8709,"menu_order":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_tec_requires_first_save":true,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_tribe_blocks_recurrence_rules":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_description":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_exclusions":"","footnotes":""},"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8821"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8821"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8821\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8864,"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8821\/revisions\/8864"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8709"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eanvt.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8821"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
