A Letter From My Daughter

(The following is a letter written by my daughter, Ariana, which I wanted to share with all of you)

You may know Paul Hodes as a public servant, a lawyer, or perhaps as a musician. I know him as something entirely different and unique. With less than a week left to go before New Hampshire decides who they’ll send down to the US Senate, I want to tell you what I know about my father.

My father is a man of integrity, thoughtfulness, and strength of character who can stand behind any decision he makes because it’s his own. He’s smart, kind, and genuinely sensitive to the needs of his constituents; the combination of which allows him to weigh different outcomes of a situation, see the big picture, and understand how individuals might be affected by different decisions.

Out of everything I know about my father, the one thing that proves his earnest desire to do good is a simple choice he made many years ago: the decision he and my mom made to raise their family in New Hampshire.
My father understood that New Hampshire was a place where his children would be raised among people with strong morals; a place where my brother and I would learn the basic human values of treating everyone we meet with respect, a place where we’d learn what it means to follow through on our commitments and to stand strongly behind our words-because in New Hampshire we may not use many of them, but when we speak it is with honesty and truth.

I am proud of the campaign my father has run, and I am proud of my father for the work he has done so far in Congress. I ask that you vote for Paul Hodes on November 2, because he is the kind of person we need more of in Washington. I ask as his daughter, as a young woman who sees a changing, challenging America, and as a proud Granite Stater, born and raised!

Sincerely,
Ariana Hodes
