“Miro has the experience and dedication needed to strengthen our schools. I trust Miro’s commitment to make sure Burlington is affordable for all generations, from young families to retirees. He has the courage and conviction to bring diverse groups together, and to face tough issues. With 20 years of experience in the business and non-profit communities, Miro has what it takes to create powerful new partnerships between our city, schools, and community organizations.”

“As former Burlington City Council President, I understand the serious challenges facing Burlington right now. I also understand what it takes to be a great Mayor – intelligence, integrity, attention to detail, financial know-how, and the courage to lead by example. I have known Miro for more than ten years and he has all of these qualities in great supply. In all my years of active participation in Vermont politics, I have never known anyone more deserving of public office.”

“As a former Burlington school board chair and Vermont state board of education chair, and a former member of the city’s Waterfront Board, I know the issues facing us are as formidable today as they ever have been. I am familiar with challenges facing our children and young adults in their out-of-school hours, and I am pleased Miro will be a strong voice for our children. I have worked with Miro over the years to promote the candidacies of Democrats who, like Miro, work to improve our community. Now is the time for Miro, with his beliefs, his credentials and his experience, to lead Burlington. I endorse his candidacy with pleasure.”

“As a 20 year resident of Burlington and mother of 3 young children, I look forward to Miro’s leadership in keeping Burlington a safe, vibrant and creative city to live and raise kids in. I know that in Miro, we would have an accountable, approachable and dynamic Mayor.”

“I’ve been friends with Miro for years and play baseball with him every summer. He’s respected by teammates and opponents alike. Miro knows the game and plays hard to win, but within the rules. We’d be fortunate to have a mayor with his character.”

Miro Weinberger will be great for Burlington. He has the passion, commitment and drive to get the job done and the skills, intellect and experience to do it well. Miro understands the value of public/private partnerships and has innovative practical ideas to build bridges between the for profit and non-profit worlds, for community benefit.

“I have known Miro for over 20 years, and he has always had uncommon vision and integrity. He is trustworthy, diligent and fiscally responsible – just the type of person we need in City Hall right now. I know he will engage the community in critical
conversations and will not be afraid to make the tough decisions. He will strengthen our city and lead us to an even better Burlington.”

“Miro is exactly the leader that Burlington needs right now. He is deeply committed to honest and transparent government. His work in the public and private sectors has given him the financial and decision-making skills necessary to confront and solve the City’s biggest problems. His enthusiasm for this City is nearly as limitless as Burlington’s potential.”

“I am supporting Miro because of his willingness and capacity to address the serious financial issues facing the City of Burlington. I have worked with Miro in my capacity as a lawyer, business owner and citizen and have been impressed with his approach to difficult issues, attention to detail and ability to work with others.”

“As long as I’ve known him, Miro has always blended a practical perspective while adhering to principles of fairness and equity. When I think about the future of this city, I believe we need a mayor who has the ability to address difficult challenges without letting go of those principles. I am confident that Miro has the skills and vision to guide us through a challenging time.”

“Miro has the experience to put Burlington’s finances back in order and the vision to keep our city among the very best in the country. He’s got what it takes to win this race and, once elected, I think the people of Burlington are going to see the value of Miro’s hard work and visionary leadership.”
