“Longmont needs leaders who choose to get involved. Who choose to be in and learn about their community. Who choose to spend their time and creativity shaping our city into a place that everyone loves.”

“Simply put, a vote for Matthew for the Ward 2 seat is also a vote for Longmont.”

“If we let agencies and industry partners co-opt the language of resilience while advancing projects that industrialize, fragment, and degrade these landscapes, we lose more than trees. We lose the integrity of public lands and the meaning of conservation itself.”

“Treating Open Space as flexible inventory is unacceptable. Our community deserves durable protections that match the commitment voters already made.”

"We elected him to serve six years, not to cut and run when things get hard."

He doesn’t just bring hope; he brings a clear and thoughtful plan to make our community stronger, fairer, and a better place for everyone.

The Longmont Leader values community voices and welcomes letters to the editor as part of our commitment to open dialogue and civic engagement.
