To the Editor:

It is my pleasure to endorse Judit DeStefano for re-election to Legislative Council, District One.

Judit has done a fantastic job of representing D1 and I am thrilled that she wants to continue to serve our community. She is smart and consistently demonstrates a clear understanding of difficult issues and a passion for doing the right thing. She is an education supporter while also being an advocate for responsible spending, senior needs, and prioritization of our limited resources. Judit is a skilled listener and collaborator and is always open minded to finding creative solutions. I find Judit to be tenacious when it comes to getting answers to her questions and thorough in her preparation for LC meetings. Judit is always available and always responsive to hearing the concerns and opinions of others. Being a member of the LC and representing her constituents is an honor to her and something she takes very seriously. She is a true asset to our LC and our community.
