Write in Cara Becker for Great Barrington Housing Authority

The tenants deserve this woman as their champion.

I am endorsing write-in Cara Becker for a five-year term of the Great Barrington Housing Authority. She was appointed by the select board last November and has been a hardworking and a positive member of the board ever since. The tenants deserve this woman as their champion, working for progressive change in subsidized housing.

Please consider her as a write-in candidate in the June 30 town election.
