“Kat’s long history of activism and engagement in Ferndale positions her perfectly to serve on City Council. Her work as a civil rights attorney will bring a unique and fresh perspective and will help to serve every resident of Ferndale. I am happy to endorse Kat for Ferndale City Council.”

“Years ago, I encountered this bright, outgoing, friendly young woman just starting out in Ferndale, clerking in a local store. It wasn’t long before her name popped up in local papers for the best of reasons. Kat was working with others on ranked choice voting for Ferndale. And that was only the beginning. She has since been involved in many organizations working to strengthen neighborhoods and to help the city and schools meet the constant challenges facing the Ferndale community. Kat is extremely well equipped by experience and her innate independent thinking to serve on Council.”

“Kat is a hard worker and independent thinker for our community. I have loved working alongside her and learning from her these past few years. I especially appreciate how she takes care to prioritize making sure every single voice is heard!”

“Having lived next door to Kat for the last 6 years, I am certain that the qualities that make her a great neighbor to me will translate into being a great neighbor for everyone in Ferndale once elected!”

“Kat has tirelessly volunteered the last several years as President of Citizens For a Fair Ferndale, where she actively promotes an inclusivity and civility for the community of Ferndale.”

“Kat is involved in the community and wants to see our city flourish. She is also open-minded, objective, and a good decision maker. She would be an asset to our city.”

“I’m so excited to learn that Kat is running for city council! She is such an advocate and voice for Ferndale residents with an understanding heart, intelligent mind, and supportive spirit.”

“Kat is a person of integrity and an advocate for equality and liberty. I have no doubt that she will represent my interests very well.”

“Kat is a unique candidate for this position given her background and her depth of history within the community. She knows how far Ferndale has come in the past two decades and understands where we need to go moving forward. Kat is smart, educated, and independent, tempered with a great dose of common sense. We need Kat Bruner James on City Council!” ”

“Kat has a proven track record of looking out for those who need help. Seniors, economically challenged and homeowners alike; Kat will listen to and represent everyone.”

“As a lifelong resident of Ferndale, I support Kat Bruner James because she is serious about representing our city. Her work on the Ferndale Inclusion Network has shown me even more about her plan to support diversity and include all Ferndale citizens in the process. She is committed and dedicated to progress.”

“Kat is one of the smartest, most well-qualified candidates for City Council we have seen for some time. Her commitment to social justice, responsible government, and her independent streak makes her a natural choice for Council.”

“Kat has been involved in such a variety of community projects, but the work she has done to promote inclusion is the thing that sets her apart.”

“I support Kat for Ferndale City Council and encourage others to vote for her. I have observed, from working with her on projects for Citizens for a Fair Ferndale, that she clearly understands the value of listening and evaluating before making big decisions.”
