On July 22, 2025, Winooski School District Superintendent Wilmer Chavaria was detained and questioned by federal agents for four and a half hours at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport. Wilmer is a US citizen and despite holding valid travel documents and a Global Entry pass, he was neither told why he was being held nor given any explanation when his pass was subsequently revoked by email.
Wilmer is a previous guest on our podcast and did an episode with us last spring titled “Immigration is a Human Right”. Today we are bringing you an interview with Wilmer about his recent detention and a re-release of his original episode.
Please note- due to the urgent nature of this content we wanted to expediate the release of this episode, so we are pushing it out on our streaming platforms before adding it to our webpage and archive webpage. Transcript & show notes are coming soon to https://vermontcwtp.org/podcast/
