I recently met Saqib Ali when he personally came to my house to introduce himself. I knew a little about Saqib prior to this through my 22 year old son Sean, who just graduated Towson with a Political Science major. At the age of 18, Sean was following Saqib and was impressed with him. After a little research, I agree with my son, I am also very impressed with Saqib. He fights for the average citizen of District 39, in a very down-to-earth, personal way.
The majority of Saqib’s campaign funding is from individuals, not from special interest groups. He supports full marital rights for same sex couples. He fights for the student members of the Maryland Board of Education. He works to protect the Chesapeake Bay by proposing stronger controls on pollutants that may be released into the water. These are just a few of the many reasons to believe that Saqib has our best interests at heart. I chose to volunteer, then met and began working with some of his staff and volunteers. I was truly impressed by the enthusiam shared by this group of supporters. I am very proud to share in this campaign to elect Saqib Ali to the State Senate.
