Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (CA-18)
Congressman Chris Pappas (NH-01)
Congresswoman Teresa Leger Fernandez (NM-03)
Congressman Eric Sorensen (IL-17)
Congresswoman Andrea Salinas (OR-38)
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren shared:
“I am proud to endorse Joe Vogel for Congress in Maryland-06. Joe is an immigrant… Latino… LGBTQ… and someone who entered public service because he grew up in the school shooting generation and felt like our government isn't doing enough. Moms Demand Action has recognized Joe as a 'Gun Sense Candidate' because we know he won’t just talk about common sense solutions, he’ll work and fight to pass them in Congress. Joe has been endorsed by the Maryland public teachers, every Labor union engaged in this race, and many elected officials because we know he is a voice we need in Congress. I hope you will vote for Joe on May 14th.”
"As Illinois' first openly LGBTQ Member elected to Congress, I see the power of representation in government" said Congressman Eric Sorensen.
"When elected, Joe will make history as Maryland’s first LGBTQ member of Congress. Now more than ever we need a new generation of leaders who are ready to take on the fight to protect our democracy."
"These members of Congress all know what it means to deliver for working families," said Delegate Joe Vogel. "These are trusted leaders, both in their communities and in Washington. We've built a broad coalition on this campaign that recognizes we are doing the work to meet voters where they are, understand the issues, and are building a winning campaign to propel us to November. I'm honored to have their support."
