More than 170 Supporters Join Andy Kim for Three Year Celebration Event

Marlton, NJ — Tonight, more than 170 supporters joined Rep. Andy Kim and special guest, former White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, for an event celebrating three years since Andy first announced his run for Congress. The two discussed how Andy’s work in the White House and the Situation Room has translated to his leadership in Congress and the importance of reelecting him this fall.

“Andy represents all that we hope for for our government, which is people who put country over self; people who see public service as a way of life; people who are motivated not by ideology but by a belief in people and a belief in data and a belief in outcomes. That’s what I came to know about Andy,” said Denis McDonough, former White House Chief of Staff

“Tonight’s event was an incredible show of force by our grassroots supporters. Though we can’t all be together in person, coming together online more than 170 strong represents the strength of the team committed to reelecting Andy to Congress,” said Andrew Mamo, Andy Kim for Congress Communications Director
