[ [link removed] ]Welch for Vermont
We did it,
team. We won. I will be Vermont’s next United States
Senator.
I’ve been in public service for most of my life. My motivation for staying
in this fight has always been to give people a fair shot and right
injustices. Whether it was organizing against racial housing
discrimination in Chicago, defending low-income clients as a public
defender in White River Junction, or fighting for Vermonters in the state
senate and Congress — I always fought to give everyone an equal
opportunity.
There’s more injustice in our society than ever. Constitutional rights are
being taken away, working families are struggling to make ends meet, and
our democracy is being threatened by lies. But going out into Vermont and
meeting voters during this campaign has given me renewed hope. I know that
when we care for our neighbors, we all stand to benefit.
I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the many, many people like you who
supported this campaign. In ways big and small, you’re the reason I will
be Vermont’s next United States Senator.
We all know that the work ahead of me won’t be easy: in many ways, the
Senate is broken, and we don’t yet know who will control the chamber. But
I know what I’ll fight for no matter who is in charge. I’ll fight to lower
the cost of living, I’ll fight to protect reproductive rights, and I’ll
fight to save our planet.
I’ll fight for you.
I also want to say thank you to Patrick Leahy. No one has served Vermont
so faithfully, so decently, and so fiercely as Patrick for 48 years. He’s
dedicated most of his life to advocating for Vermonters. Alongside
Marcelle — and with a camera in hand — they made Vermont an even better
place to live and visit.
Thank you all again. I hope we can all appreciate this victory and
everything that has led us to this moment.
And then we’ll get back to work in January. Talk soon.
Peter
