I am very proud to support Kim Keiserman for State Senate in the general election this
November.

I first met Kim over a decade ago, when we were both volunteers on the Sousa Green
Committee. Kim’s daughters were young but she was finding the time to help the community in a positive, constructive way, by making it easier for families to get reusable lunch containers. Environmentally-friendly containers were not as readily available then as they are now and Kim sought to address that.

Each time I ran into Kim in the succeeding years, it was because she was working on something to improve the lives of people in our community. She brought her incisive intelligence, warmth and grace to every interaction and every project. We volunteered on more than one political campaign together and she always amazed me with her ability to distill issues down to their fundamental points while still considering all the nuances and variables involved.

Kim is the right representative for our community because she reflects our needs: she will work to protect our waterfront (as already demonstrated by her stewardship of the Baxter Pond Foundation), support public education (as seen by her involvement in multiple school-based volunteer organizations before her girls went to college), and will make sure to be a voice for reproductive freedom and sensible gun laws. Kim may be gracious, but she is a strong, tough advocate for causes she believes in. I know she will stand up for our community.

Kim has the endorsements of Congressman Tom Suozzi, the NYS AFL-CIO, and Planned
Parenthood. They all recognize her energy, her commitment, and her grasp of the issues.

I encourage everyone to vote for Kim on Nov 5th!
