“The choice is clear. Kesha Ram Hinsdale stands out as a consistent fighter for working people. Workers around the country need their elected officials to fight for them not only with their words but also with actions of solidarity.”
Bill McKibben, Writer and Founder of 350.org
“Kesha has proven her skill as a legislator, and her smart commitment on the key issues of our time. When the world is overheating, Vermont can do a great service by sending a leader like her off to represent our values and our common sense.”
Rep. Taylor Small, P/D-Winooski
“When I was considering running, Kesha was one of the first calls I made. She gives courage to so many who have felt unheard and unrepresented in our political system. When she makes history as the first, she turns around and makes space for others so she is not the last.”
