Amy Kennedy Endorsed by President Barack Obama

Brigantine, NJ — Today, President Obama announced his endorsement of Democratic candidates, including Amy Kennedy, candidate for New Jersey’s Second Congressional District.

“I’m honored to be among the candidates endorsed by President Barack Obama. In these unprecedented times, leadership is more important than ever,” said Amy Kennedy. “We need leaders who are committed to serving the people they’re elected to serve, who are focused on providing justice and opportunity for all. In Congress, I’ll work tirelessly for the people of South Jersey to provide access to affordable health care, to support and protect working families and to revitalize South Jersey’s economy.”

“I’m proud to endorse this diverse and hopeful collection of thoughtful, empathetic, and highly qualified Democrats. Together, these candidates will help us redeem our country’s promise by sticking up for working class people, restoring fairness and opportunity to our system, and fighting for the good of all Americans — not just those at the top,” said President Obama. “They make me optimistic not just about our party’s chances in November, but about our country’s future long after that. So if you’re in one of their districts or states, make sure you vote for them this fall. And if you can, vote early — by mail or in person.”
