More than 50 Mississippi mayors have endorsed Clinton as well as the Florida Sun-Sentinel and the entire Tampa City Council.

Jackson Mayor Tony Yarber: “Hillary Clinton knows how to make it happen. As President, she will give special and needed attention to cities – particularly minority-led cities – and the issues that plague us. She is committed to pushing for creative infrastructure investments and to building on the progress President Obama has made. In my mind, she is the only candidate who can pragmatically achieve important gains for families and communities, and it’s why I’m proud to support her candidacy.”

Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree: "As a mayor, I know how important it is to have someone in the White House that will understand the struggles that small cities and municipalities face every day. From education to health care, Hillary Clinton is committed to under-served communities and small towns, and that's why I stand behind her. I'm excited to join the team of grassroots supporters who know that Hillary Clinton is the experienced choice for President."

Greenville Mayor Errick Simmons: "Hillary Clinton is working everyday to tear down the economic, racial, and social barriers that are holding our communities back. She fully understands how the federal government can become an economic catalyst to local governments by maximizing federal investments with local economic development plans. She has spent the last 40 years fighting for racial and social justice, and I know she will spend the next 8 years doing the same."
