U.S. Senator Bob Torricelli, U.S. Senator Bill Bradley, and New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine Endorse Sue Altman in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District

Princeton, NJ – Today, former U.S. Senator Bob Torricelli, former U.S. Senator Bill Bradley, and former New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine announced their endorsement of Sue Altman in her race for New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District.

Sue has a decade-long career fighting Republicans and power political insiders. Whether it was having a mic thrown at her by Governor Chris Christie when she stood up to protect teachers and New Jersey’s public schools, being dragged out of a hearing in Trenton by corrupt party bosses after exposing a $1 billion tax break for crooked insurance companies and corporate donors, or serving on the frontlines against the Trump’s administration's chaos and cruelty as Senator Andy Kim’s State Director, Sue has never backed down from tough fights on half of working people.

U.S. Senator Bob Toricelli: 

“Nobody brings the passion, talent, and experience of Sue Altman to the fight for a Congressional majority. The progressive cause in Congress needs more than a vote, it needs a principled uncompromising leader and that person is Sue Altman.”

U.S. Senator Bill Bradley:

“New Jersey would be lucky to have Sue Altman represent us in Congress. The character, experience, intelligence, and enthusiasm put together into a single candidate make Sue Altman the best candidate to represent NJ-12.”

New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine:

“Sue Altman is clearly the best choice for NJ-12. She has the character, judgment, and principled commitment to public service our times demand. Through her leadership of the New Jersey Working Families Party and her work as Senator Andy Kim’s State Director, she has shown a long and consistent belief in serving people directly, listening carefully, and standing up for the communities she hopes to represent.”

Sue Altman, Democratic Candidate for New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District:

“I am incredibly grateful for the endorsements of Senator Bob Torricelli, Senator Bill Bradley, and Governor Jon Corzine. Their support is a tremendous honor, and a tremendous responsibility. These are leaders who know what it takes to get things done for New Jerseyans, and their belief in this campaign sends a clear message: NJ-12 is ready for bold, principled, and uncompromising leadership. I've spent my career fighting for working people, and now it’s time to take that fight to Washington. Let's win this for every working family in NJ-12.”
