Vermont Business Magazine Tuesday evening upon securing the Democratic nomination for State Treasurer, Mike Pieciak issued the following statement:
It is an honor to win the Democratic nomination for Treasurer. I am humbled voters have put their trust in me, and I look forward to building a broad coalition to win in November and tackle the issues facing all Vermonters.
I thank Treasurer Beth Pearce for her nearly two decades of service to Vermont. She has been a constant advocate for our dedicated teachers and state employees, and has worked tirelessly to ensure our state is on strong financial footing. I appreciate her support of my campaign.
I will continue traveling across our state to hear directly from Vermonters about the issues affecting their families and communities. Together we can find the solutions to the most pressing challenges facing our state: housing, childcare, and the changing climate. I look forward to getting to work.
Mike Pieciak was most recently the Commissioner of the Department of Financial Regulation, the state’s consumer financial watchdog agency. Under his direction, the Department recouped millions of dollars for Vermont taxpayers and investigated the Jay Peak fraud. Gov. Phil Scott tapped Pieciak to help lead Vermont’s Covid-19 response efforts, where he directed the State’s pandemic data analysis and modeling. He has received the endorsement of sitting Treasurer Beth Pearce, the LGBTQ Victory Fund, the Professional Firefighters of Vermont, the Vermont Troopers Association, and numerous legislators.
