To the Residents of Montgomery County,
It is an honor to offer my full and enthusiastic endorsement of Radwan Chowdhury for Montgomery County Council At-Large. In a time when our community faces complex challenges in growth, affordability, and governance, Radwan stands out as a leader who prioritizes measurable execution over political noise.
Radwan’s background as a seasoned executive is exactly what the county needs to ensure every public dollar is tied to performance and long-term sustainability. His career highlights reflect a rare ability to manage vast financial portfolios—exceeding $25.5 billion—while simultaneously driving operational efficiencies that reduced service response times by 40% in his executive roles. This level of disciplined fiscal leadership is essential for a county as large and economically vital as ours.
What makes Radwan truly unique is that his executive expertise is paired with a deep, hands-on commitment to public service. As the Chair of the East County Citizens Advisory Board and a leader within the Fairland-Briggs Chaney Master Plan Implementation Committee, he has consistently advocated for development that aligns with infrastructure and environmental sustainability. He understands that representation is not just symbolic; it is about ensuring that immigrant families, seniors, and working households have a direct voice in the decisions that shape their lives.
If elected, Radwan would make history as the first Bangladeshi American and first-generation Asian American to serve on the Council. However, his candidacy is built on far more than milestones. It is built on a career of integrity, including:
-Financial Accountability: Serving two terms as the elected Treasurer of the Duval County Democratic Party with a record of full transparency.
-Social Advocacy: Over a decade leading nonprofit initiatives focused on poverty alleviation, mental health awareness, and senior care.
-Civic Integrity: Serving our democracy directly as an Election Judge and Election Protection Officer.
Radwan Chowdhury is a leader of results. He believes that "government should work as effectively as the people it serves," and he has the executive record to prove he can make that promise a reality.
I urge you to support Radwan Chowdhury for Montgomery County Council At-Large on
Election Day, Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026. Together, we can ensure a future grounded in accountability, inclusivity, and shared prosperity.
Sincerely,
Anis Rahman, PhD
