FROM AARON GIES: Aaron Gies, Democratic and Working Families candidate for Congress in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, announced today his acceptance of an endorsement from Indivisible Corning Elmira, a local grassroots activist group.
A spokesperson for Indivisible Corning Elmira says “We are proud to support Aaron Gies in his campaign to represent the people of the Twenty-third Congressional District. Aaron has a history of serving communities — as a teacher, nonprofit leader, and person of faith. He knows what families carry. He knows what rising costs do.”
“And he sees what happens when Washington is consumed by greed. When corporations get special treatment, when families pay more at the pharmacy, when wages don’t keep up, when young people wonder if they can afford to stay…we’ve lost something fundamental–our focus on the Common Good.”
“Aaron is running for Congress to refocus the government on what really matters to Western New Yorkers: making a good life affordable for everyone. Fighting for the most vulnerable in our community and a commitment to the ideals that bring our Indivisible group together: equality, justice, compassion, and inclusion.”
“We’ve been impressed with his ability to listen to our concerns, his depth of knowledge on how public policy impacts real families, and by his clear passion for helping our community thrive.”
“Aaron Gies’s platform resonates with us and fits with the values that matter to us. Residents of the Twenty-third District need a representative who will stand up to Donald Trump and his harmful agenda that has endangered immigrant children and their families, threatened the financial well-being of our families, and emboldened racists and bigots across this country. We are certain that Aaron Gies will be that representative.”
“To flip this seat, we need a candidate who can inspire a diverse coalition of progressive voters from every corner of our district. We believe Aaron Gies has the vision it takes to be that candidate. Indivisible Corning-Elmira is ready to help mobilize this district and do the work to send him to Congress.”
