To the Editor:

I am pleased to offer my full endorsement for Jennifer Macksey as the mayor of North Adams. Throughout her tenure and service to our community, Jennifer has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the future of North Adams —one that reflects the values of our rich history, progress, opportunity, and inclusivity.

Jennifer's dedication to supporting youth programs is evident in her continued advocacy for initiatives that provide our younger generations with the tools, mentorship, and opportunities they need to thrive. She understands that investing in our youth today is essential to ensuring a brighter, more sustainable future for our local community.

She also stands as a steadfast supporter of local businesses, recognizing their vital role in the economic fabric of North Adams. From promoting policies that help small businesses grow, to fostering an environment where entrepreneurs can thrive, Jennifer is ensuring that our local economy will flourish for years to come. Though my personal interactions through my business have been minimal, when I needed help the most, Jennifer showed up and worked hard for my business and staff.

Jennifer knows that real progress takes time, and she has rolled up her sleeves to tackle some of the most pressing infrastructure issues facing North Adams. Her ability to balance immediate needs with long-term vision makes her the right person to lead our city through a period of rebuilding and renewal.

She is working tirelessly, collaborating with community leaders and residents alike to turn the vision into a reality — one that will strengthen North Adams and allow for future investors and local growth, alike.

I wholeheartedly support Jennifer Macksey and encourage others to do the same. She is the qualified candidate that North Adams deserves — one who listens, works hard, and cares deeply about the future of our city.
