I am currently a rising senior at Quince Orchard high school and believe strongly that we must do more to protect the environment. I am a strong supporter of Delegate Saqib Ali in the upcoming District 39 State Senate primary because of his devotion to environmental activism. Saqib has promoted policies like reducing Maryland’s carbon emissions and protecting the oyster population in the Chesapeake Bay. His leadership on environmental issues earned him a score of 100% on the League of Conservation Voters 2010 scorecard, while his opponent, Nancy King, received a score of 60%. Saqib’s strong record on the environment has also earned him the endorsements of the Sierra Club and League of Conservation Voters.
I know that as our state senator Saqib will continue his efforts to protect Maryland’s environment and I look forward to doing my part to help get him elected. Please join me in supporting Saqib Ali for State Senate!
