SUPPORTING JENNIFER ROBERTS by Kirsten Roopenian

I am supporting Jennifer Roberts for re-election to the Select Board. She is a strong leader who has been tasked with a unforeseeable set of unique challenges, starting first with a worldwide pandemic. She managed to lead us through the COVID epidemic and all of its attendant issues, been consistently approachable, willing to tackle tough matters, and is financially precise and astute. Jennifer has often been a steady voice on the Select Board when too often disagreements became personal, she found a way to defuse and remain professional when the situation required composure and collaboration.

I could list many topics she continues to address individually, but Sudbury’s health, financially and otherwise, is paramount these days. We are in some unsettled and unpredictable times, surely, we need powerful leadership from our policy makers.

Jennifer will continue to be a strong leader who works diligently for the Town as a whole, who will find solutions for oftentimes complex issues. She does not shy away from any issue, and endeavors to work in any environment including those in which she may not agree with. Her commitment to our community is unassailable. I very much support a leader who is willing to listen and put aside personal bias in order to make decisions that will benefit Sudbury now and in the future. We are at a crossroads, time to make some hard choices and Jennifer is my choice for another term on the Select Board. I anticipate many will agree, and thank you for considering Jennifer Roberts on March 28.
