Here’s How to Take Action and Help Stop New Elections in Sint Maarten

Please take the time to share this post

The government of Sint Maarten, led by the dishonorable Prime Minister William Marlin, is failing the people of the island. On Thursday, November 2, 2017, Parliament effectively voted to remove Marlin from his position. Marlin responded by calling for elections to be held to form a new government.

At a time where the entire island is in disarray, struggling to recover from the most devastating storm in history, calling for elections is nearly criminal. The community of Sint Maarten needs to move forward, and they should not be called on to vote for a new government when so many people remain homeless, jobless, with no where left to turn.

In addition, by calling for new elections, Marlin continues to cause a delay in desperately needed Dutch funding. The Dutch have openly stated that they do not want new elections to be held and a new government to be formed. If this proceeds, Sint Maarten may not receive any relief funding from the Dutch.

Please take a moment to sign the petition showing your support for no new elections in Sint Maarten. Help put an end to the incompetent, selfish leadership of Prime Minister William Marlin.

Hi there! 👋 I'm Jon, an American 🇺🇸 (and Canadian 🇨🇦) who fell in love with Saint Martin the first time I visited back in 2009. Since then, I've traveled to Saint Martin countless times, both with family and solo. Following Hurricane Irma, on September 6, 2017, I started SXM Strong to support the island and share information I was gathering to help the island recover. Today, SXM Strong is a place I share everything I know and have learned about this incredible island. 🏝️ 🇫🇷 🇸🇽
