Philip Brian Scott (born August 4, 1958) is an American politician, businessman, and stock car racer who has been the 82nd governor of Vermont since 2017. A member of the Republican Party, he was a representative for the Washington District in the Vermont Senate from 2001 to 2011 and served as the 81st lieutenant governor of Vermont from 2011 to 2017.

Scott was elected governor of Vermont with 53% of the vote in the 2016 general election.[1] He was reelected in 2018 with 55.2% of the vote;[2] in 2020 with 68.5% of the vote; in 2022 with 70.9% of the vote; and in 2024 with 73.4% of the vote and a 51.6% margin of victory.[3][4] Scott's 2024 margin of victory is the largest in any Vermont gubernatorial election since 1996 and the largest for a Republican candidate for governor of Vermont since 1950.[5]

One of the nation's most popular governors,[6] Scott is often described as a moderate Republican. As of 2024, he is the only Republican elected to statewide office in Vermont.

Early life

[edit]

Philip B. Scott was born on August 4, 1958, in Barre, Vermont, the son of Marian (Beckley) and Howard Roy Scott (1914–1969).[7][8] His father was disabled after being wounded while serving in World War II and later worked as a vehicle permit supervisor for the state highway department.[9][10] In 1973, Scott's mother married Robert F. Dubois (1919–1983).[11][12]

Scott graduated from Barre's Spaulding High School in 1976.[13] Scott is a 1980 graduate of the University of Vermont, where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial education.[14]

Business career

[edit]

After graduating from high school, Scott began working at DuBois Construction, a Middlesex business founded by the brother of his mother's second husband.[15] After college, Scott owned a motorcycle sales and repair shop in Morrisville, then worked as a construction manager for Morrisville's H. A. Manosh Corporation.[16] Scott has also been involved in other business ventures, including ownership of a restaurant and a nightclub.[17]

Scott became a co-owner of DuBois Construction in 1986.[18][19] He is a past president of the Associated General Contractors of Vermont.[19] On January 6, 2012, a fire at DuBois Construction caused substantial damage,[20][21] but the owners rebuilt and continued operations.[22]

After being elected governor, Scott sold his share of DuBois Construction to avoid possible conflicts of interest, since DuBois Construction does business with the State of Vermont. He sold his 50% share for $2.5 million plus 3% interest, payable over 15 years.[23] Scott said he opted to finance the sale himself rather than having the company borrow the money to pay him in full in order to preserve the company's bonding capacity.[23] Critics suggested that Scott's sale of his share in the company over 15 years did not eliminate possible conflicts of interest, but Scott and the attorney who negotiated the sale on his behalf disagreed.[23]

In October 2018, the state ethics commission issued an advisory opinion that Scott did have a conflict of interest because of his continued connection to the company.[24] In September 2019, the commission withdrew the opinion, with its executive director saying that the process for receiving the complaint and investigating and issuing the opinion had been flawed.[24] In February 2022, DuBois executives said they had reached an agreement to sell the company to Barrett Trucking of Burlington.[25] The sale's terms were not disclosed, including whether Scott would receive a lump sum or installment payments, but DuBois representatives said the company's obligation to Scott would be met.[25]

Political career

[edit]

Vermont Senate

[edit]

A Republican, Scott was elected to the Vermont Senate in 2000, one of three at-large senators representing the Washington County Senate district. He was reelected four times, and was in office from 2001 to 2011. During his Senate career, he was vice chair of the Transportation Committee and chaired the Institutions Committee. He also was a member of the Natural Resources and Energy Committee.[26] As chair of the Institutions Committee, Scott redesigned the Vermont State House cafeteria to increase efficiency.[27]

During his time in the Senate, Scott was on several special committees, including the Judicial Nominating Board, the Legislative Advisory Committee on the State House, the Joint Oversight Corrections Committee, and the Legislative Council Committee.[28]

Lieutenant governor

[edit]
Scott in 2016

On November 2, 2010, Scott was elected the 81st lieutenant governor of Vermont,[29] defeating Steve Howard. He took office on January 6, 2011. He was reelected in 2012, defeating Cassandra Gekas, and in 2014, defeating Dean Corren.

As lieutenant governor, Scott presided over the Vermont Senate when it was in session. In addition, he was a member of the committee on committees, the three-member panel that determines Senate committee assignments and appoints committee chairs and vice chairs. In the event of a tie vote, Scott was tasked with casting a tie-breaking vote. He also was acting governor when the governor was out of state.[30]

As a state senator and lieutenant governor, Scott was active with a number of community service projects. In 2005, he founded the Wheels for Warmth program, which buys used car tires and resells safe ones, with the profits going to heating fuel assistance programs in Vermont.[31]

Job approval as lieutenant governor

[edit]

In September 2015, Scott maintained high name recognition and favorability among Vermont residents. The Castleton University Polling Institute found that more than three-quarters of Vermonters knew who he was, and that of those who were able to identify him, 70% viewed him favorably.[32] Despite his being a Republican, the same poll found that 59% of self-identified Democrats held a favorable view of Scott, while only 15% held an unfavorable view of him.[32]

National Lieutenant Governors Association

[edit]

Scott was an active member of the National Lieutenant Governors Association (NLGA), and was on the NLGA's executive committee and the NLGA's finance committee.[33][34] As a member of the NLGA, he joined fellow lieutenant governors across the country in two bipartisan letters opposing proposed cuts to the Army National Guard in 2014 and 2015.[35][36] Scott was a lead sponsor of an NLGA resolution to develop a long-term vision for surface transportation in the U.S.[37] He also co-sponsored resolutions to recognize the importance of arts and culture in tourism to the U.S. economy, to support Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education, to support designating a National Arts in Education Week, and to support a comprehensive system to end homelessness among U.S. veterans.[38][39][40][41]

Governor of Vermont

[edit]

2016 gubernatorial campaign

[edit]

In September 2015, Scott announced his candidacy for Vermont governor.[42]

An early 2016 poll commissioned by Vermont Public Radio and conducted by the Castleton University Polling Institute found that of the two candidates for the Republican nomination for governor, Scott was preferred by 42% of respondents compared to 4% for Bruce Lisman.[43] A poll commissioned by Energy Independent Vermont in late June 2016 indicated that Scott had the support of 68% of Republicans to Lisman's 23%.[44]

On May 8, 2016, Scott was endorsed by nearly all of Vermont's Republican legislators.[45] He did not support Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential campaign.[46]

On August 9, Scott defeated Lisman in the primary election by 21 percentage points.[47] He defeated Sue Minter, the Democratic nominee, in the November general election by 8.7 percentage points.[48][49]

Governorship

[edit]

Fraud case settlement

[edit]

On April 13, 2017, Scott announced a $150 million settlement with Raymond James Financial, Inc. as part of resolving fraud allegations by contractors and investors related to the Jay Peak and Burke Mountain EB-5 developments.[50]

Job approval

[edit]

According to an October 2017 Morning Consult poll, Scott's approval rating stood at 60%, making him the 7th most popular governor in the country. The poll was conducted between July 1 and September 30, 2017, and had a margin of error of 4%. In April 2018, another Morning Consult poll found that Scott's approval rating had risen to 65%, making him the 4th most popular governor in the country.[51] His favorability ratings fell to 52% by May 2018,[52] and to 47% by July, marking the largest decrease in popularity for any governor in the nation.[53] By April 2019, Scott's approval rating had recovered to 59%, with a 28% disapproval rating, making him the 5th most popular governor in the country, with a net approval of 31%.[54]

Political positions

[edit]

Scott has been called a moderate,[55][56] as well as a liberal Republican.[57] His views are "fiscally conservative but socially liberal".[58][59] Scott has said: "I am very much a fiscal conservative. But not unlike most Republicans in the Northeast, I'm probably more on the left of center from a social standpoint ... I am a pro-choice Republican".[60] He supported the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump that began in September 2019,[61] and called for Trump to "resign or be removed from office" after the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol building.[62] In the 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, Scott announced he voted for Democratic nominees Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, respectively,[63][64] calling the latter "a vote against Donald Trump" and a move to "put country over party".[64]

Fiscal and budgetary issues

[edit]

Scott pledged to veto any budget that grows faster than the growth rate of the underlying economy or wages in the previous year, or that increases statewide property taxes. Conflicts over raising property tax rates, which the state legislature supported and Scott opposed, led to a strained relationship between him and the legislature in 2018 for the FY19 budget, despite high revenues overall.[65]

Scott made addressing Vermont's long-term unfunded liabilities a priority, and worked with State Treasurer Beth Pearce to pay down Vermont's pension debt.[66]

Taxes and fees

[edit]

The FY18 budget Scott signed into law did not include any new or increased taxes or fees. He has said that he opposes any new taxes.[67] He also refused to sign a bill that would have raised property taxes.[68] Scott vetoed the FY19 budget twice before allowing it to go into law without his signature, as the threat of a government shutdown approached.[69][70]

In early 2018, Scott called for eliminating the tax on Social Security benefits. House legislators incorporated a modified form of this proposal into the final FY19 budget, eliminating the tax for low- and middle-income retirees.[71] The tax reform Scott planned (which was ultimately implemented) also lowered state income tax rates by 0.2% for all brackets; tied Vermont's tax system to Adjusted Gross Income (AGI); created Vermont-defined income deductions and personal exemptions similar to the federal tax code; increased the state earned income tax credit by three percentage points; and added a new 5% charitable contribution tax credit.[72] Scott's administration has reduced both Workers' Compensation and Unemployment Insurance tax rates.[73] He has twice proposed to phase out the tax on military retirement income, which the legislature did not advance.[74][75]

Economic development

[edit]

In 2016, Scott set a goal of boosting the state's economy by increasing the state's population to 700,000 within 10 years by encouraging young people who come to study in the state to remain after graduation.[76] University of Vermont economics professor Arthur Woolf Scott suggested that retention of older Vermonters, with larger incomes and tax revenues, would be a better focus, but Scott pointed to the lower average healthcare costs associated with a younger population.[77]

Scott's economic development plan has largely focused on workforce development and economic incentives. He has advocated and achieved increasing tax credits for development, new support for small business, additional initiatives for rural economic growth, tax increment financing, permitting reform, and tax exemptions in key industries.[78] Scott has made expanding the labor force a priority of his administration, and has proposed and achieved initiatives that invest in workforce recruitment, retention, and relocation.[79]

Health care

[edit]

Scott signed a bill requiring Vermonters to have health insurance, making Vermont among a few states to implement such a policy after the federal repeal of the individual mandate provision of the Affordable Care Act.[80] But in part due to his opposition to a financial penalty for an individual mandate, the legislature passed and Scott signed a bill that would simply require attestation of health insurance.[81]

Scott has advocated moving away from a fee-for-service-based health care system, and has suggested focusing more on the quality of care and services rendered. This model has been implemented on a pilot basis with an accountable care organization.[82]

In April 2021, Bryan Kehl and Christopher Rufo, among others, criticized Scott for implementing a race-based COVID-19 vaccination schedule.[83] In response, he released a statement condemning what he called a "racist response" to the plan.[84]

Education

[edit]

Scott has called for modifying Act 46 to improve cost containment measures, incorporate property tax reduction, preserve local control and school choice, and allow communities to keep the funds they save through school district mergers.[85] He has expressed support for flexible learning plans and new technologies to improve educational outcomes.[85]

Scott's FY18 budget made investments in education, including a $3 million increase in the base appropriation to the Vermont State Colleges to stabilize tuition and a new position in the Agency of Education focused on career and technical education.[86] The budget also expanded a base appropriation for child care financial assistance by $2.5 million.[87] The FY20 budget Scott signed into law built on these investments, with an additional $7.4 million for child care and $3 million more for higher education.[88] The next year, Scott worked with the legislature to eliminate tuition for members of the Vermont National Guard.[87]

As a state senator, Scott voted for legislation to reduce education property tax rates.[89][90] Scott's FY18 budget froze property tax rates, and the FY19 budget froze residential property tax rates.[86][72]

Gun law

[edit]

Scott passed legislation that banned bump stock devices, expanded background checks for gun purchases, raised the age to purchase firearms to 21 (with certain exemptions), limited the sale of certain high-capacity magazines, increased restrictions on the sale of firearms to alleged domestic abusers, and created risk protection orders.[91] In September 2018, Scott created a Violence Prevention Task Force, ordered a security assessment of all Vermont schools, and signed legislation appropriating $5 million for school security grants.[92] Scott also signed gun control legislation that "limits some aspects of gun possession and empowers authorities to remove guns from people who may be dangerous."[93]

Government reform and modernization

[edit]

Scott supports limiting Vermont's annual legislative session to 90 days. According to him, the session's unpredictable length discourages everyday Vermonters from running for office.[94] A 90-day session, according to Scott, would encourage more people to run for elected office by setting clear parameters.[94] Furthermore, he argues that a 90-day session would force the legislature to focus on key fiscal and operational issues.[94]

As governor, Scott created a Government Modernization and Efficiency Team to implement efficiency audits, strengthen IT planning, implement a digital government strategy, and identify opportunities to eliminate inefficiencies, establish clear metrics and streamline services.[95] He also created the Program to Improve Vermont Outcomes Together (PIVOT) initiative, which asks frontline state employees for ways to make state government systems more efficient and easier to use.[86] Scott consolidated IT functions in state government with the creation of the Agency of Digital Services, saving $2.19 million.[86][96] He also merged the Department of Liquor Control and the Lottery Department into the Department of Liquor and Lottery to achieve savings.[96] Scott's administration has worked to achieve internal improvements through lean training and permit process improvements.[96] He also successfully sought to eliminate and merge redundant boards, commissions, studies and reports.[96]

Transportation

[edit]

In July 2016, Scott outlined the transportation priorities he would implement as governor.[97] He said he would strengthen the link between economic growth and Vermont's infrastructure; oppose additional transportation taxes, including a carbon tax; oppose accumulating additional state debt for transportation; encourage innovation in transportation by implementing a Research and Development (R&D) tax credit and an Angel Investor tax credit (a 60% credit toward cash equity investments in Vermont businesses, specifically targeted toward transportation, energy and manufacturing firms); protect the state's transportation fund to ensure it is used for transportation purposes only; advocate federal reforms and flexibility in transportation policy; and update the Agency of Transportation's long-range plan for transportation.

Abortion

[edit]

Scott is pro-choice. In June 2019, he signed into law an abortion rights bill that was among the most wide-ranging in the U.S. in providing for abortion at any time, protecting "the fundamental right of every individual who becomes pregnant to choose to carry a pregnancy to term, to give birth to a child, or to have an abortion."[98] In December 2022, he signed a constitutional amendment passed by Vermont voters to further protect the right to abortion in the state.[99]

Civil rights

[edit]

Scott supports same-sex marriage.[100] He signed into a law a gender-neutral bathroom bill intended to recognize the rights of transgender people.[101] Of the new law, he said, "Vermont has a well-earned reputation for embracing equality and being inclusive".[102]

Drugs

[edit]

On May 24, 2017, Scott vetoed a bill that would have legalized marijuana recreationally in Vermont.[103] In October 2020, he announced he would not veto another bill to legalize recreational marijuana use, allowing the bill to become a law without his signature.[104]

As governor, Scott created an Opioid Coordination Council, appointed a director of drug policy and prevention, and convened a statewide summit on growing the workforce to support opioid and substance abuse treatment.[86] To further treatment options, he worked with the Secretary of State's Office of Professional Regulation to streamline the licensing process for treatment professionals.[105] Scott boosted efforts to reduce the drug supply through the Vermont Drug Task Force, Drug Take Back days, and expanding prescription drug disposal sites.[105]

Immigration

[edit]

Scott opposed the Trump administration's immigration policies. In 2017, he signed a bill to limit the involvement of Vermont police with the federal government in regard to immigration,[106] and the Department of Justice notified Vermont that it had been preliminarily found to be a sanctuary jurisdiction on November 15, 2017.[107] Scott opposed the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy and the separation of families at the border.[108]

Environmental issues

[edit]

Scott approved $48 million for clean water funding in 2017.[109] He signed an executive order creating the Vermont Climate Action Commission.[110] Scott announced a settlement with Saint-Gobain to address water quality issues and PFOA contamination in Bennington County.[111] His FY18 budget proposal called for a tax holiday on energy efficient products and vehicles.[112] On June 2, 2017, Scott led Vermont to join the United States Climate Alliance, after President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Agreement.[113] Scott committed to achieving 90% renewable energy by 2050.[114] In 2019, he signed several pieces of legislation related to water quality, including creating a long-term funding mechanism for cleaning up the state's waterways, testing for lead in schools and child care centers, and regulating perfluorooctanoic acid and related PFAS chemicals in drinking water.[115][116][117] On September 15, 2020, Scott vetoed the Global Warming Solutions Act, which mandated reductions to Vermont's carbon emissions.[118] Ten days later, his veto was overridden.[119]

Racing career

[edit]

Scott is a champion stock car racer.[19] He won the 1996 and 1998 Thunder Road Late Model Series (LMS) championships and the 1997 and 1999 Thunder Road Milk Bowls.[19] (The Milk Bowl is Thunder Road's annual season finale.)[19]

In 2002, he became a three-time champion, winning both the Thunder Road and Airborne Late Model Series track championships and the American Canadian Tour championship.[19] (Airborne Park Speedway is a stock car track in the town of Plattsburgh, New York).[120] He also competed in the 2005 British Stock Car Association (BriSCA) Formula One Championship of the World, but did not finish.[121]

On July 6, 2017, Scott won the Thunder Road Late Model Series feature race; he started from the pole, and the victory was his first since 2013.[122] He participated in a limited number of Thunder Road events in 2019, and won the June 27, 2019, LMS feature race.[123] In July 2022, Scott competed in the Governor's Cup 150, in which he finished 23rd.[124] As of July 2019, he has 31 career wins, which places him third all time in Thunder Road's LMS division.[125]

Personal life

[edit]

Scott has been married three times, first to Jane Manosh, and later to Angela Wright.[126][127] He lives in Berlin, Vermont, with his wife Diana McTeague Scott.[128] He has two adult daughters.[128][129]
