Critics urge votes on Vermont Yankee

The print story by AP reporter John Curran appeared in the Burlington Free Press, Times Argus, and Brattleboro Reformer. It begins: "BURLINGTON -- Hoping to sway lawmakers, two of the state's most famous residents and one of its former governors joined groups opposed to the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant on Thursday in announcing a push for Town Meeting Day votes on whether the plant should keep operating past 2012. Ice cream icons Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield and former Gov. Phil Hoff lent their voices to those who want the Legislature to turn thumbs down on Vermont Yankee's request for a 20-year license extension."
