Dear Bozeman City Commission,
I am reaching out to encourage you to allow Tom Woods to be added to the election for city
commissioner in 2024.
Tom has been an important voice in local and regional politics for many years, and he is oneof the most honest, caring, engaged, conscientious people I've ever known; certainly in
politics. While his interests and views are known and important to his way of thinking, he willalways take that pause (currently so very rare among any politicians) and think about the
larger picture, the greater good, the impact for each relevant population. His decisions areclearly focused on what can make Bozeman and its citizens whole. And he has spent years
working to keep civility in political decision making.
It's a given that he's capable, knowledgeable, and committed. It would be wonderfulopportunity missed if he is not on the ballot for consideration. The city shines with him in a
commissioner's seat, please make sure that Bozeman's citizens have the opportunity to pull thelever for someone who is a rare political person in this polarized world.
Thank you
Martha Sellers
