Weprin Picks Up WFP Endorsement
Congressional candidate David Weprin will have three lines on the ballot in September’s special election. After being selected by the Democrats last week, Assemblyman Weprin picked up the Independence Party’s support over the weekend. And today, the Working Families Party announced that Weprin has the unanimous support of its executive committee.
In a statement, WFP Executive Director Dan Cantor said “As the Washington Republicans threaten to default on our national debt and end Medicare as we know it for millions of seniors, the people of Brooklyn and Queens can count on David Weprin to stand up for working families. Throughout his time in the city council and the state assembly David Weprin has earned our respect and admiration as a public leader. He’s a real mensch. That’s why the Working Families Party supports David Weprin for Congress.”
