Endorsements
For more than 10 years, I have known Emily Rousseau as a trusted neighbor and community member who shows up and supports others. Emily is well respected and cares deeply about expanding opportunity for all. Her commitment to our community is shown through her leadership on the City Council and with Northeast Youth and Family Services (NYFS), an essential resource for local youth and families. She also prioritizes greater housing opportunity and open, accountable leadership. I am proud to support Emily Rousseau for Mayor of Arden Hills

I enthusiastically endorse Emily Rousseau for the office of Arden Hills Mayor. I was privileged to serve with her on the Arden Hills City Council through 2023 - 2024, and have known Emily as a good friend for over 4 years. As a council member Emily consistently demonstrated the same energy, intellect and personal skills which have graced her friendships, family life and professional accomplishments known to me throughout our period of acquaintance. As a city official she is always a strong advocate for sensible solutions to city issues, while being fair minded and open to the opinions of others. Emily is eminently possessed of both the experience and the skills to make an outstanding mayor and government leader for the City of Arden Hills.
