Statement on Bernie Sanders endorsing Hillary Clinton

7/12/2016

0 Comments

 
Today Bernie Sanders endorsed Hillary Clinton.

As someone who just went through a contested Primary Election of my own, it’s never easy to go head to head against someone that is of the same party. Oftentimes it gets personal. Luckily in my case we kept it civil and positive, but to see two individuals who collectively have contributed so much to our country in one form or another coming together for a greater purpose, it truly represents the best in a political system that i
s usually wrought with challenges.
I endorsed Bernie in the campaign and spoke on his behalf during the Maine caucus process. Bernie brought a lot of robust debate within the party and across our country. Issues like campaign finance reform, limiting the influence of corporate lobbyists on public policy decision making have been brought to the forefront FINALLY. It takes real leadership to take those issues head on and challenge the status quo interests. 
Young people registered to vote in record numbers and have been engaged in a political process that often ignores or isn’t willing to give much thought to the next generation. Thank you Bernie for running for President and trying to make things better.

​Lots of work ahead, but we must stop to appreciate the movement that has been created as we come together for the betterment of the country. Now is the time to focus on every race, large or small, up and down the ticket, to create the kind of change we’d like see.
