NEW YORK — Congressman Jerry Nadler today announced his endorsement of Governor Kathy Hochul’s campaign for a full term. Joining Congressman Brian Higgins and Congressman Joe Morelle, Congressman Nadler is the third member of the New York State Congressional delegation to endorse Governor Hochul.

A Brooklyn native, Congressman Nadler served in the New York State Assembly from 1977 to 1992, and currently serves in the United States House of Representatives. He is the dean of the New York Congressional delegation and the chair of the House Judiciary Committee.

“Congressman Nadler is a strong advocate for New York City and one of our delegation’s longest enduring allies in the fight for a more affordable and equitable state,” said Governor Kathy Hochul. “I am glad to be able to count on Congressman Nadler’s support and honored to be working with him to build a stronger New York for all.” 

“It is my honor to endorse Kathy Hochul to remain as governor of New York,” said Congressman Jerry Nadler. “As her colleague in Congress, I witnessed Kathy’s dedication and resolve in standing up to the special interests and radical proposals to cut Medicare and defund Planned Parenthood. Since then, as her partner in government, I have continued to know Kathy as a strong fighter for working families throughout our state.

“Governor Hochul has proven herself to be an excellent leader, one who is bringing transparency and openness to our state government and offering a vision to make New York stronger than ever before. I’m proud to stand with her.”
