In 2010, with bipartisan encouragement, Phil was elected Vermont’s 79th Lieutenant Governor. As Lt. Governor he launched the Everyday Jobs Initiative, and Vermont Economy Pitch sessions to ensure he is learning from the employers Vermont’s economy relies on. In 2011, in the wake of Tropical Storm Irene, Phil organized the removal and disposal of mobile homes around the state, which were destroyed by the flood, all at no cost to homeowners and without spending any taxpayer dollars.Since 2011, he has worked in the shoes of 35 different professions around the state, from manufacturing floor technicians and beekeepers to emergency room workers and second grade teachers. The Vermont Economy Pitch sessions, started in January 2015, provided businesspeople the platform to pitch ideas directly to legislators on how to improve Vermont’s business climate. Many ideas from those sessions were introduced into the 2015 legislative session, several of them passed into law.

Each summary is supported by the candidate's own words from a campaign source, direct candidate response, or official primary record retained with the profile.
“I’ve made this decision because I believe too many families and employers are on the economic edge. For them to thrive and our state to prosper we must revitalize the fundamentals of a strong, healthy economy that expands the middle class, lifts wages, and attracts working families, entrepreneurs and new jobs… It is time for Vermont to move forward, beginning with a change in the Governor’s office…I will be a steady hand at the helm, provide balanced leadership that values listening, stand up for working families and confront our crisis of affordability in meaningful ways. Practical leadership that is in touch with the needs of everyday families and small businesses will rebuild faith and trust in government and move Vermont forward in very positive ways.”

Executive public-record methodology
An executive record will attach only from official orders, directives, vetoes, signed actions, legal filings, or direct official statements that explicitly attribute the action to this person. Agency outcomes and events during an administration are not inferred as personal actions.
Official filings may be amended after publication.
Vermont's official campaign-finance portal is linked. No amount attaches until one exact candidate identity, compatible 2026 election cycle, reporting period, and amendment state are captured. Missing values are not zero.
Claims that did not clear the publication standard remain visibly excluded.
Reason: NO_STABLE_ELIGIBLE_PUBLIC_RECORD_IDENTITY_ATTACHED
Names and candidate-stated prior service alone never attach another person's records.
Every profile claim points back to retained source evidence.
