Jim Sullivan Endorsement Of Chris Abele For Milwaukee County Executive

Jim Sullivan didn't make it through the February primary for Milwaukee County Executive, but released a statement today strongly endorsing Chris Abele. Here is the text:

From the Desk of Jim Sullivan  Dear Friend: The battle over worker rights in Madison over the past several weeks is a dramatic example why we need to elect leaders who will fight for us and stand up for our shared values. That's why I enthusiastically endorse Chris Abele for Milwaukee County Executive, and urge you to do everything you can to help elect him on April 5th. He will bring the change and reform Milwaukee County desperately needs, and he will stand up for what's right. Your help can make the difference in this critical election on April 5th. Join us as we launch a major canvass to talk directly to voters on Saturday, March 26 at 10:00 am. Chris knows Milwaukee County government needs a new direction. He will work hard to undo the damage caused by eight years of Scott Walker's polarizing politics and fiscal mismanagement. And Chris understands how important it is to protect and strengthen vital County services that people depend on every day. Chris will reverse the decline of our once-proud transit system, and restore the bus system's ability to connect workers to jobs and help people move around our community. Chris knows that our parks are treasures that must be preserved, and that we cannot tolerate the scandals that have plagued our mental health system. But we all need to do our part to make sure Chris Abele is elected Milwaukee County Executive on April 5th. You can do your part on Saturday, March 26 as we knock on doors and talk directly with voters about the need for change at Milwaukee County after years of Scott Walker's failed policies. The past several weeks have shown us why it's so critical to stay active, and stand with leaders who stand with us. I'm proud to endorse Chris Abele for Milwaukee County Executive, and I urge you to do everything you can to help him get elected on April 5th. Thank you, Jim Sullivan PS - We have less than three weeks to make sure we send Chris Abele to the Milwaukee County Executive's office on April 5th. Your help can make the difference -- join us at our canvass on March 26 as we deliver Chris' message of change and reform directly to voters' doorstep. Paid for by the friends of Jim Sullivan, Chris Knowlton, Treasurer, as an in-kind contribution to Chris Abele for County Executive, Jeff Peelen, Treasurer.
