The Truth

Yesterday's mailing by Jerry Green on Rebecca Williams was Jerry Green's mailing. Not mine.


Rebecca 's campaign has had one theme: "Jerry owns Rashid. Vote for Rebecca".

Jerry Green does not own me. He is a powerful force in this City and I work with him when I agree with him. When I disagree with him I work hard to get him to see things my way.


My record on the Council stands for itself. My support of gay rights is well known: I initiated and got passed equal benefits for same sex partners of City employees. I held a fundraiser in my home for the Plainfield Pride Film Festival. I fully supported Ray Blanco from day 1. I would never condone any "gay bashing". 


Rebecca has tried to make this election about Jerry and there is a lot of hate in this campaign, as evidenced by the mailers and Dan Damon's blogs. At this late date, can we move beyond the Rebecca psychodrama with Jerry? Can we get past the endless self-victimization by Rebecca?

I think we must.

My campaign has been about accomplishments, ideas, achievable goals for our City and a strategy to reach those goals:

Please remember, this election is about Plainfield and what we can get done. Will you vote for the person best qualified to move our town forward?


Thank you
