I am writing to express my strong support for Amit Kapoor as a Lane County Circuit Court judge.

As a licensed clinical social worker who works primarily with court-involved families, I have had the opportunity to testify in Judge Kapoor’s courtroom on several occasions. In each instance, I found him to be thoughtful, compassionate and well-versed in both the law and the complex dynamics of family systems. Judge Kapoor has demonstrated a consistent approach of firm yet empathetic leadership from the bench.

In my experience with him, I have been struck by his intelligence, humility and clear commitment to serving our community with integrity. He approaches his role with a genuine dedication to fairness and a willingness to continually learn and improve.

Additionally, Judge Kapoor brings valuable cultural diversity to the bench. As a former human rights commissioner for the city of Eugene, I understand the importance of representation in our judicial system. As a person of color and an immigrant, Judge Kapoor reflects the inclusive values our community strives to uphold.

For these reasons, I strongly support Judge Kapoor’s continued service on the Lane County Circuit Court and encourage you to vote for him.
