Here's what's news in this week's print edition of your friendly neighborhood weekly, Seven Days:
- For our cover story, Megan James and Corin Hirsch spent 36 hours in Newport ... Vermont, a city on the brink of something big.
- Burlington is holding hostage the liquor licenses of several businesses, including Bove's Restaurant, to force them to address code violations and unpaid taxes.
- Many of Vermont's undocumented farmworkers live in substandard housing without much notice from the outside world. But one Vermont town is fighting a farm to improve housing conditions for Latino laborers.
- As Washington considers federal immigration reform, a Burlington lawyer has taken the helm of a national organization that could influence the debate.
- And in Fair Game, Paul Heintz presses Sen. Patrick Leahy on whether Egypt's military takeover is a "coup", and whether that means the U.S. must yank foreign aid to that county. Plus, how the F-35 is splitting South Burlington, and the Burlington Free Press hires a new, younger staff.

Since 2014, Seven Days has allowed readers to comment on all stories posted on our website. While we’ve appreciated the suggestions and insights, the time has come to shut them down — at least temporarily.
While we champion free speech, facts are a matter of life and death during the coronavirus pandemic, and right now Seven Days is prioritizing the production of responsible journalism over moderating online debates between readers.
