The Stonewall Democrats of Western New York are thrilled to announce our support of Robin Wilt for State Senate in the 56th Senate District.
Robin Wilt is a phenomenal progressive voice who will bring a desperately needed fresh perspective to Albany. The daughter of Caribbean-American parents who immigrated to the United States from Guyana, Wilt has throughout her career been a dedicated, hard-working citizen and activist. In 2006, Robin Wilt joined a local MoveOn.org group in the suburbs of Rochester where she worked to advocate for the renewal of the State Child Health Plus Insurance Program (SCHIP.) Robin is also the co-founder of the Genesee Valley chapter of Progressive Democrats of America, a grassroots organization working to advance progressive causes in the Democratic Party.
When she is elected to the New York State Senate, Robin Wilt will further advance our shared progressive causes for New York State by replacing the anti-equality Republican Sen. Joseph Robach. Robin Wilt will be an unfailing champion of the Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act and Marriage Equality, and for that we champion, applaud and will stand for her.
Endorsed by both the Monroe County and New York State Democratic Committees, Wilt has the support of New York’s progressive community, with endorsements from NARAL Pro-Choice New York, Marriage Equality New York and the Empire State Pride Agenda. Raised in Pittsford, NY, Robin now resides in Brighton with her husband and three children.
Stonewall Democrats of Western New York is the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning and queer Democratic voice in western New York. Our mission is to advocate for the LGBTQ community within the WNY area government and the Democratic Party.
