BURLINGTON, Vt., June 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — As part of its Gen. John Stark Lectures, the Ethan Allen Institute is proud to present a dinner with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a noted environmentalist and advocate of individual liberty. Mr. Kennedy is a prolific and best-selling author, a nationally-syndicated radio host, and a frequent television commentator. He has been a traditional skeptic of government power–much like Thomas Jefferson was in his time.
“We are pleased to give Mr. Kennedy a platform to speak in Vermont,” said Myers Mermel, President of The Ethan Allen Institute. “We are especially interested to learn more about his views on free market and economically fair solutions to climate issues. Our concern this past session in the Vermont legislature was that the Affordable Heat Act was not market based and would regressively tax our middle and low income population. Mr. Kennedy has supported free market solutions to climate in the past. Based upon Mr. Kennedy’s perspectives and insights, we hope we can find new avenues to explore within structured climate solutions.” Concluded Mr. Mermel, “We expect Mr. Kennedy to address a wide range of contemporary issues within his talk.”
