EPIC Statement on Veto of Vermont Data Privacy Act

“It is disappointing to see Governor Scott veto a bill that received overwhelming support in the Legislature. The Vermont Data Privacy Act would have provided Vermonters with meaningful privacy rights that are lacking from other state laws, and would have rightly provided them with the opportunity to enforce those rights. EPIC urges the Legislature to override the veto.”

-Caitriona Fitzgerald, Deputy Director, Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC)
