When addressing concerns, Stephen listens and provides thoughtful responses. He truly cares about other people and wants everyone to have a chance to succeed. He researches the issues to find real solutions, and he will do a great job in the state legislature.

Stephen Otterstrom is the man for the job.

‘A government of the people, by the people, for the people.’ Abraham Lincoln’s famous quote is what I believe and is one of the main reasons why I immigrated to America. Through my activism on a vast spectrum of issues — including ICE, LGBTQ+ rights, poverty, homelessness, Black Lives Matter, Native American rights, and genocide (wherever occurring) — I see Mr. Otterstrom present.

He has never shied away from standing for the underdog. His record as an activist is the best proof that he is a man of the people for the people. I endorse his candidacy, and I would gladly give him my vote.
