Maloney endorses Zephyr Teachout

Posted

NY 19th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT — Zephyr Teachout received the endorsement of Representative Sean Patrick Maloney of New York’s 18th Congressional District in her campaign to represent the state’s 19th Congressional District.

“I’m really happy to have Representative Maloney’s support in my campaign for Congress. It’s exciting to have so much momentum early in the race,” said Teachout. “I’m running to fight for what our communities need—like more infrastructure investment—and to stand up for people whose voices are drowned out and shut out.”

Maloney said, “Zephyr Teachout grew up in a small town and then spent her life fighting for hardworking families like our neighbors in the Hudson Valley. Zephyr will do right by the Hudson Valley—by investing in infrastructure, making college more affordable, and making government work for our farmers, small businesses and hardworking families. I am endorsing Zephyr because she is a voice for all of us in the Hudson Valley and I know she will fight to get results for our families.”

The 19th Congressional District consists of all of Ulster, Sullivan, Columbia, Schoharie, Otsego, Delaware and Greene counties and parts of Montgomery, Dutchess, Rensselaer and Broome counties. It is currently represented by U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson, who is not seeking re-election.
