John Marty’s list of accomplishments is long and impressive, but more importantly, his voice in the Senate is unique and irreplaceable. It is an ethical and principled focus, invariably standing up for the people, the environment, and good government.
It was my deep pleasure to work with John over my 14 years in the Legislature. Senator Marty is a formidable and gifted legislator. With unceasing energy, he presses forth every day, carrying the vision of a society that works for all of us and the vision of a Legislature that acts with the integrity and openness that people expect. These are visions for long-term change, meeting multifaceted challenges, drawing coalitions of support, celebrating victories along the way, and always pressing onward.
