New York State
Senator Jeffrey D. Klein and New York State Assembly member Mark Gjonaj announced their
support for Adriano Espaillat in the NY-13 Congressional
Primary, adding to a series of Bronx endorsements. This support comes in
the wake of several major labor union endorsements including RWDSU, DC 9, UFT
and HTC who announced their support earlier this month and joins a broad
coalition of support for Espaillat from across the District.
“I am pleased to announce my
support for my friend and longtime colleague Adriano Espaillat today,” Jeff Klein, 34th District State
Senator said. “Adriano has focused his campaign on creating opportunity for
all, through smart economic development, new affordable housing initiatives and
equal education options – all of which the residents of The Bronx could hugely
benefit from. We need a Congress member who is focused on the next twenty years
not just the next two – it is time for a new voice to represent this District
and Adriano Espaillat is that voice.”
“Adriano Espaillat will bring
opportunity to The Bronx and I am proud to endorse his candidacy for Congress
today,” Mark Gjonaj, 80th
District State Assembly member said. “Adriano has been a fighter for
affordable housing. If our communities are going to stay communities we need a
voice like Adriano’s in Congress. He has a smart economic development plan that
will keep our small businesses in business, our residents’ apartments
affordable and our neighborhoods thriving. I look forward to working with him
on his campaign and in Congress to do just that.”
“I am proud to receive the
support of Senator Klein and Assembly member Gjonaj today,” Adriano Espaillat, 13th District Congressional Candidate
said. “The 13th District spans a diverse community in Upper
Manhattan and The Bronx and with their support I know I can unite the District
in the fight for affordable housing, thoughtful economic development and education
Opportunity for All.”
