Friend -

We were saddened and surprised to learn of the recent accusation against Tom Reed. We have gotten to know Rep. Reed well through his leadership of the Problem Solvers Caucus and we have seen his deep commitment to public service and to No Labels’ mission of bridging the political divide between Democrats and Republicans. We did not know about his struggles with addiction and we commend him for being open about those struggles and for taking full accountability for the pain he caused this young woman with his conduct. 

In life, we all fall sometimes. We believe Rep. Reed, with the support of his friends and family, will get back up and find a way to give back to his community and his country.
