In this week's issue of Seven Days, now available in print and online...
- More homeless Vermonters than ever are currently living in motels. Critics say that's not helping them find permanent homes.
- The feds crack down on Vermont businesses that are failing to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
- Some magazines and books are banned behind bars in Vermont, although exactly which ones are forbidden seems to vary depending who you talk to.
- One Vermont teen is sharing her story of how the foster-care system failed her. With the closure of one social-service agency, the state's foster-care system is facing new struggles.
- In Fair Game: Sen. Bernie Sanders is taking a hard line against Medicare cuts in fiscal cliff negotiations, but Sen. Patrick Leahy and Rep. Peter Welch won't go that far. Plus, the secretary of state proposes new campaign finance regulations, and local politicos find new jobs.
