I whole heartedly endorse Leigh Davis to represent the 3rd Berkshire District

She possesses the rare combination of passion and pragmatism, always seeking solutions that benefit the greater good.

To the editor:

As a member of the community and a fellow elected official who has had the privilege of getting to know Leigh Davis, I wholeheartedly endorse her candidacy for the 3rd Berkshire District.

In Leigh, I have found not only a dedicated public servant but also a courageous advocate for our community’s most pressing issues. Her unwavering commitment to serving our community is truly inspiring. She possesses the rare combination of passion and pragmatism, always seeking solutions that benefit the greater good.

One aspect of Leigh’s work that particularly stands out is her tireless advocacy for housing issues. In a time when affordable housing is becoming increasingly scarce, Leigh’s efforts are not only commendable but essential. Her initiatives in this realm will undoubtedly leave a lasting legacy, ensuring that future generations have access to safe and affordable housing.

Leigh’s fearlessness in taking on challenging issues sets her apart as a leader. She isn’t afraid to tackle difficult problems head on, even when others may shy away. It is this courage and determination that makes her uniquely suited to represent our district.

Never forget January 6, what it was and was not

You must never allow yourself to believe lies when your own eyes have seen the truth—particularly when the truth is uncontrolled fury, rage, and murderous conduct.

Bracing for the next four years

I am sympathetic to all those who are nervous and have elevated anxiety and debilitating depression while facing the next four years. I hear you every day.
