Thank You For Your Support
Less than 70 days ago I stood with my family, friends, and supporters in front of the Mickey Leland building to announce my candidacy to be the congressman representing the United States 18th Congressional District. We chose the Mickey Leland building, because we wanted our race to be about the people. While growing up, I had the opportunity to work under Mickey through the Mickey Leland Youth Task Force (MLYTF), and I saw that he was about the people. We set out to empower and represent the people of the 18th Congressional District, and we wanted to engage the people in the political process. With your help we were able to do that.
I would like to thank each of you for your support. With your help we were able to create a spirited debate about the issues important to you. Some of you picked up the phone to garner support, some of you contributed dollars, others volunteered your time at the campaign office or in the community, some of you gave in-kind donations, and then others of you helped spread the news via Facebook and Twitter. Your efforts are truly appreciated!
I enjoyed meeting you at your neighborhood meetings, at your church, and at other places in the community.
The race is not over.
To my constituents in District B, I look forward to continuing to serve you as your city councilman.
I will continue to be a work horse for you – championing your issues!
Sincerely,
