Dear Bozeman City Commission,
My name is Jackson Mundell and I am a rising senior at Montana State University (MSU). I am
writing today on behalf of Emma Bode, who is a candidate for the vacant Bozeman City
Commission seat.
As a student involved in sustainability and climate action, I have had the absolute pleasure of
working with Emma on numerous occasions. I can say wholeheartedly that the passion and
energy she displays daily as an organizer, community advocate, and friend has been inspiring.
Her work ethic and ability to make personal connections with everyone around her will set her
up well for a position in the City Commission.
My work with Emma has mostly been with Sunrise, where she has always put forth great
effort and care while organizing. Her ability to empower community members around her
while always bring a charismatic and cheerful attitude has helped motivate many.
As a student at MSU, I would love to see more representation on the Commission from
younger voices. Her work in starting SustainabilityNow (SNow) years ago at MSU continues to
inspire student action on MSU's campus today. Emma not only represents the voices of
younger people, but serves as a strong leader paving the way for Bozeman's future.
Emma is devoted to bettering her community and ensuring Bozeman and the surrounding
area is livable for all. If appointed to the City Commission, I am confident that she will act in
the best interest of the people of Bozeman and beyond. Please strongly consider appointing
her for this position!
Kind regards,
Jackson Mundell
