"As a scientist, environmentalist, and educator, I look forward to supporting elected officials with similar values. We need smart, well-grounded, and progressive representation, particularly in these days of divisive politics. I find those values represented in the positions of Kelly Perry-Hyland and endorse her candidacy wholeheartedly." -Dr. Artie Kopelman, SUNY Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus, and Professor Emeritus of Science SUNY/FIT
