VT-AG: Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark (D) launches reelection bid

Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark is running for reelection, she announced on Monday.

The Williston Democrat is seeking what would be her third two-year term as the state’s top prosecutor.

In a press release announcing her bid, Clark pointed to the 49 lawsuits her office has joined against President Donald Trump’s administration since Trump took office a second time. That has included litigation over the administration’s tariffs, its sweeping layoffs of federal workers, its efforts to roll back gender-affirming healthcare and other changes. If successful, many of those cases could preserve tens of millions of dollars in federal funding for state programs.

Clark said she’s eager to continue “to protect the sovereign state of Vermont against unconstitutional and illegal acts.”
