A Message from Andrés
Election seasons have one truism: if the message is resonating the momentum only snowballs.

Speaking of snowballs, it's been a trip planting our yard signs in the middle of snowstorms and deep freeze temperatures sustained by pizza, hot chocolate, and commitment to the campaign. Thank you Volunteers!

Thank you also to everyone who has hosted and attended one of several Zoom Town halls in the last couple of weeks! I've really enjoyed virtually meeting many new people and reconnecting with friends and neighbors.

These are all elements you feel should be part of an even more welcoming and thriving Highland Park. 

To give you a flavor of some things I shared at the town halls, in this clip, I offer my perspective on the importance of inclusion in our community plus I share one of the key reasons I decided to run -- and it has to do with you.

See below for more campaign news and info.
