Donovan endorsement
Burlington, VT Today Democracy for America (DFA), endorsed Chris
Donovan for Congress. Donovan will continue to be a strong voice for Connecticuts
middle class.
"Chris Donovan has been a
champion of working families in Connecticut, said Jim Dean, Chair of DFA. He
began advocating for the hard working people of Connecticut while organizing
with SEIU in the 1970s. Since then,
Chris has been staunch defender of the middle class by fighting to raise the
minimum wage, not once, but three times.
Chris Donovan truly represents Connecticuts best interest in the middle
class.
Donovan has long been responsible for maintaining high economic standards in
Connecticut. He helped balance the state
budget and eliminated a $10 billion dollar deficit in 2009.
Chris Donovan responded to the DFA
endorsement with enthusiasm:
Chris Donovan: It is an honor to earn the support and
endorsement of DFA. They share my belief that Congress should be working for middle
class families, and not just the 1%. I have spent my career fighting for
Connecticut's working families, and with the help of DFA, I'll fight for them
in Congress as well.
