Dear Editor,
Sen. Alison Clarkson, Sen. Becca White, and Joe Major deserve our vote here in Windsor County.
This is a statement of my strong support for the Windsor County Senate district Democratic ticket: Sen. Alison Clarkson, Sen. Becca White, and Joe Major. Clarkson and White are seeking re-election, while Major hopes to bring his remarkable extensive town governance, housing, and racial justice experience to Montpelier as a new senator for our district.
With your help Joe Major will become the third strong leg of Windsor County’s “Stool of Support in Montpelier” we need in facing Vermont’s future.
These three share records of dedicated leadership, with Clarkson guiding Democratic priorities through the Legislature as the Senate Majority Leader, White serving as co-chair of both the climate solutions caucus and future’s caucus, and Major overseeing impactful policy changes within tight budgets as the Hartford town treasurer.
The three candidates share a deep understanding of our communities’ needs and resources, and I am excited to have the opportunity to support a team with such a strong commitment to economic and racial justice, reproductive liberty, building climate resilience, and strengthening all levels of our public education system.
The next legislative cycle will face numerous challenges, from stabilizing our education funding system to ensuring that Vermont remains a viable place for young people to live and start families and for older Vermonters to remain in their communities and access quality healthcare. In addressing these challenges, it is vital that we are represented by proven problem-solvers.
I believe if you join with me in supporting Clarkson, White and Major we will have strongest county senatorial delegation in Vermont. Please vote on or before Nov. 5.
Paul Regan, South Woodstock, Vice chair of Woodstock Democratic Town Committee
