WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. — On the heels of a historic, record-breaking fundraising quarter, Noah Arbit (D-West Bloomfield) announced his campaign’s first endorsements. A majority of West Bloomfield Township’s elected officials are unified in support of Arbit’s candidacy, including West Bloomfield Township Supervisor STEVE KAPLAN, Township Treasurer TERI WEINGARDEN, and Township Trustees JONATHAN WARSHAY and DIANE ROSENFELD SWIMMER.

“We are proud to endorse Noah Arbit for the state house. Noah’s passion and concern for the wellbeing of our community are apparent, and we know he will be a relentless advocate for West Bloomfield in Lansing,” said Trustees Jonathan Warshay and Diane Swimmer.
Noah Arbit stated, “As a lifelong West Bloomfield resident, I am honored by the overwhelming support of our township’s hardworking elected officials, some of whom I have known for over a decade. To have earned the trust and backing of our local elected leaders means so much to me. I look forward to working with Supervisor Kaplan, Treasurer Weingarden, Trustee Warshay, Trustee Swimmer, and the entire board to help find innovative, common-sense solutions to support West Bloomfield’s families, workers, seniors, and business owners.”
