I first became aware of Saqib Ali when he was running for State Delegate, and based his campaign on getting the opinions and ideas of the people of District 39. Today he still has that commitment to listening to the voters and not just being a cog in the political machine.
Since his election to the House of Delegates in 2006 Saqib has worked closely with our community in Derwood on a number of issues, such as the construction of the ICC and protecting Maryland’s environment. For Saqib, just stating his position on an issue is never enough. He is always sure to listen to community-members before taking action and was the only legislator who took the time hear our neighborhood’s concerns regarding the ICC.
We need state senators who are willing to look at the facts, listen to their constituents and act in our best interests, even if it means going up against big corporations or the political machine. We can have such a senator from District 39 by electing Ali.
