JAMES LEAMAN & DORIS CROUSE-MAYS, VIRGINIA AFL-CIO

"It is our pleasure to inform you that the delegates to the Thirty-fifth Constitutional Convention of the Virginia AFL-CIO voted to endorse your candidacy for this fall's elections."

JOEL SEGAL, CO-FOUNDER OF PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS OF AMERICA

"Sam has one of the most important qualities that is needed to be successful in politics-he genuinely cares about people and has the political courage to speak truth to power."

BRIAN LANG, CHAIRMAN OF THE ROANOKE COUNTY DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE

"We deserve a Representative who understands how hard we work because he works just
as hard. We deserve a great Representative. We deserve Sam Rasoul."

JOE FITZGERALD, FORMER MAYOR OF HARRISONBURG CITY

"In addition to my own admiration for Sam's hard work and determination, I know from several conversations with David Layman that Sam was also David's first choice."

AL WEED, FORMER CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE (VA-05)

"We can only make those changes if we send  people up there who will fight against special interests...and I believe Sam is that person."

EVELYN POWERS, ROANOKE CITY TREASURER

"My reasons for supporting Sam are simple: he is a man who will fight for the common good of our citizens instead of the powerful moneyed interest groups and lobbyists who continue to corrupt our government."

SHERRY STANLEY, FORMER CHAIRWOMAN OF THE VIRGINIA GREEN PARTY

"You have built and impressive and capable grassroots network and proven yourself a worthy candidate."

SHIRLEY KOTHEIMER, CHAIRWOMAN OF THE ROANOKE VALLEY DEMOCRATIC WOMEN

"Sam is everywhere! "

JIM FAIN, CHAIRMAN OF THE BOTETOURT COUNTY DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE

TOM LONG, CHAIRMAN OF THE AUGUSTA COUNTY DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE

"I know of no one who has worked harder to elect Democrats in the Valley, to build our party, and to advance forward thinking ideas and policies for America."

CHARLOTTE MOORE, ROANOKE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
