Andy Kim Announces Endorsement from the AAPI Victory Fund

MARLTON, NJ — Today, Andy Kim announced he has been endorsed for reelection by the AAPI Victory Fund.

“I’m the son of first-generation Korean immigrants. My parents are truly the embodiment of the American dream, having come from humble beginnings to the United States not knowing anyone on the continent to make a better life for my sister and me,” said Andy Kim. “They raised me to believe that service is a way of life. Most days service looks like fighting for a better future for my boys, your kids, and future generations. I worry the opportunity my parents saw for me won’t be there for our kids, and feel it’s our duty to create a present that will set them up for success. With the support of organizations like AAPI Victory Fund, I know we can create and preserve that foundation together.”

“We are extremely proud to endorse Rep. Andy Kim for re-election,” said Brad Jenkins, AAPI Victory Fund President and CEO.  “Rep. Kim has displayed honorable conviction and leadership by respecting our temples of democracy. His unwavering commitment to putting his people and constituents first has not disappointed. Rep. Kim knows that successful leaders deliver tangible solutions, and he consistently rolls up his sleeves and gets to work, putting his community at the heart of his work. Rep. Kim has shown that he will fight for his community and constituents by focusing on issues that matter most to New Jersey residents – accessing high-quality affordable healthcare, investing and supporting small businesses, and creating policies to mitigate the climate crisis. We are incredibly honored to be endorsing a distinguished candidate and we look forward to what Rep. Kim has to offer to his community.”

AAPI Victory Fund Co-Founder, Tung Nguyen, went on to say, “This is an exciting time to highlight the extraordinary work that AANHPI candidates have done as we are continuing our round of endorsing candidates up and down the ballot. Rep. Andy Kim is committed to fighting for the safety of his community and constituents as well as the livelihoods and futures of the next generation of American leaders. We are so proud to be endorsing an admirable candidate.”

Congressman Kim is proud to represent the community where he grew up. He continues to have a strong coalition of grassroots support that has been behind him since 2018 and helped him secure two historic victories. Without taking a dime of corporate PAC money, Congressman Kim’s campaign has raised more than $5 million this cycle through grassroots support. Prior to serving in Congress, Congressman Kim worked as a civilian advisor to four-star generals and at the Pentagon, and served under both Republican and Democratic Presidents. He now resides in Moorestown with his wife Kammy and two young sons.
