“I'm passionate about helping people live good, meaningful lives while building strong communities and a healthy future. My priorities include public education, affordable housing, clean air and water, and building an economy that works for everyone, not just the few. But perhaps my greatest passion is improving how we govern.” (Ballotpedia)
“Patrick Belmont is a thoughtful leader, a listener, someone who is willing to have hard conversations, and a person who prioritizes kindness, compassion, and service to others. In a world where it seems extremists are often the ones with the loudest microphones, Patrick Belmont seeks to bring people together around common values to do the hard work required to move us all forward.” (Ballotpedia)
“I believe it is essential that we have diversity of opinions and perspectives in government. We have seen the damage that has been done by the Republican supermajority. A lot of bills get passed without sufficient discussion or scrutiny. And the governor has essentially decided to stop vetoing bills because the supermajority in the legislature can simply over-rule his veto. That's a recipe for a dysfunctional government.” (Ballotpedia)
