Knit the 24th, a coalition of Indivisible groups in Cayuga, Oswego, Wayne, and Onondaga Counties, is excited to announce its endorsement of Dana Balter for Congress. Knit the 24th is the only non-partisan activist group working to resist the Trump agenda across all four counties in New York’s 24th Congressional District.
The Indivisible movement is a national network of local organizations which actively oppose the agenda of President Trump and his Republican Congressional allies. All the organizations in Knit the 24th are united in their goal to defeat incumbent Rep. John Katko in the 2018 election. Rep. Katko, who purports to be a political moderate, has voted 90% of the time with the Trump agenda. His recent vote for the President’s billionaire tax relief bill, for example, will raise the taxes of thousands of middle class families across the 24th Congressional District.
According to Jim Brady of Indivisible Cayuga, “Dana Balter has the communication skills and deep policy knowledge to serve us well in Congress and we are excited to send her to Washington to work on our behalf.”
Fred Ringwald of We the People of Oswego Indivisible states, “We the People of Oswego fully support Knit the 24th’s endorsement of Dana Balter as the best candidate to address issues important to citizens of Oswego County.”
Nancy Keefe Rhodes of Indivisible Salt City says,” Balter has done the hard work of building relationships throughout the 24th District. She is thoughtful, she listens, and she has generated widespread confidence that she will stand up for the people of the 24th.”
As our next Representative, Dana Balter will fight for a fair tax program for all citizens and affordable healthcare for all. She supports high-quality education for every child, racial and economic justice, and an environmental policy that balances the need for good jobs with the health of our planet. Most importantly, Dana Balter will fight to restore respect for our democratic institutions and American values.
