I’m running to help build a Vermont that works for us.

Hey, I’m Mike Rice.

I have a basic core belief: our government should help make our lives better. It should help make life more affordable and give us all a fair shake when it comes to accessing and affording housing, healthcare, energy, childcare, and education.

But right now, life here is still too expensive for too many of us, and with the federal government doing more harm than good, state and local solutions are more important than ever.

Our community deserves a state representative who leads with values, shows up with solutions, works hard to make progress, and communicates directly and effectively with constituents about what’s happening up in Montpelier. Learn more →
