Letter to the Editor: Warren Intern Says Candidate is 'For the People'

To the Editor:

This summer, it has been my pleasure to work as an intern with the Elizabeth Warren campaign for U.S. Senate. As I reflect on my time growing up in Hamilton, I become more and more sure of my support for her.

Warren is a candidate who wants to invest in the middle class, as she is a strong advocate for spending on infrastructure, technology, and education. I would not be the person I am without the fantastic and Elizabeth Warren truly wants to give everyone similar opportunities. 

Warren is a candidate for the people, backed by those looking to change the system in Washington, not by lobbyists or big banks. She has proven capable of breaking through the Washington gridlock, as she did with her creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an advocacy group that helps with student loans, credit cards and mortgages.

It is my firm belief that Elizabeth Warren is right for both Hamilton-Wenham and for Massachusetts because, as she says, “we don’t run this country for corporations, we run it for people.”

Thank you,

Connor Schmidt
