WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the New Democrat Coalition Action Fund is excited to announce its endorsement of State Sen. Tim Kennedy for the Special Election to succeed former Rep. Brian Higgins. On April 30th, Tim Kennedy will face off against Republican Gary Dickson to Represent New York’s 26th Congressional District.
“Ahead of this critical special election in New York, NewDems are thrilled to endorse State Senator Tim Kennedy to become the newest Democratic Member of the U.S. House of Representatives,” said New Democrat Coalition Chair Annie Kuster (NH-02). “Since the beginning of his career, Tim has dedicated himself to helping others, whether it was during his time as an occupational therapist, to his work in the State Legislature delivering historic infrastructure investment, defending women’s rights, and protecting communities from gun violence. Tim has a record of doing what’s right for his constituents and he’ll bring that same commitment to New Yorkers when he comes to Washington next month.”
"I'm honored to receive the endorsement of the New Democrat Coalition Action Fund because I share their commitment to advancing inclusive, forward-thinking policies that strengthen our democracy and empower people in every community across our nation," said Tim Kennedy. "This coalition is built by trailblazing, solution-driven members who understand the issues facing hardworking Americans, and I look forward to working alongside them to build a better nation that fosters opportunity for all."
