Candidacy Announcement Speech for Attorney General Kim Wilkerson

Kim Wilkerson: A Changemaker for Constituency 23

Good morning Bermuda, members of the media, and residents of Paget West, Constituency 23.

It is my distinct pleasure and honor this morning to announce my decision to stand as the Progressive Labour Party Candidate for Constituency 23.

Experience, Independent Thinking & Problem-Solving

I bring to this fight the experience I already have in public service and in life. I plan to bring the same independent mind, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills to the issues faced by the residents of Constituency 23.

A Passion for Human Rights & Humanity

My passion is to fight for human rights and to see more humanity in the way that we operate as a country and how we connect—one citizen to another.

Serving Bermuda as Attorney General

It has been an honor to serve Bermuda as your Attorney General and Minister of Justice over the past few months. In that time, we have continued the work of making our laws fairer and more reflective of the needs of Bermudians today and a Bermuda of the future.

A Commitment to Constituency 23

I hope to continue the plans already in progress in my role at the Ministry of Justice and to fight singularly for the people of Constituency 23 by listening to understand their specific needs and advocating for them on the national stage.

I am committed to ensuring that the concerns of C23 residents are translated into policy and action.

A Promise to Act

✅ I promise to be accessible and accountable.
✅ More importantly, I promise to DO.
✅ I will be a changemaker for C23 and for Bermuda.

Thank you for your time and attention this morning.
