Betsy Hodges to Gary Schiff: Thank you for your endorsement

"My campaign is about the future, not the politics of the past."

Minneapolis, MN – Today, joined by supporters at Gandhi Mahal restaurant, Gary Schiff endorsed Betsy Hodges’ campaign for mayor of Minneapolis. Below is Hodges’ response.

"I thank Gary for his unswerving commitment to the city of Minneapolis and congratulate him for running a strong campaign for mayor. I thank Gary for his support of my campaign and look forward to working together with him to build a progressive 21st Century City.

"My campaign is about the promise of the future, not the politics of the past. Minneapolis can no longer be a city of haves and have nots. The education, job, wage and health inequities between white people and people of color must be addressed so that every person in every neighborhood has every opportunity to succeed. Now is the time to make the great city of Minneapolis an even greater city.

"Gary Schiff and I stand on the same side of a progressive vision for Minneapolis and I am grateful for his support today.”
