Bernie Sanders Adds New York Endorsements Ahead Of Comeback Rally In Queens

Eight Empire State lawmakers now back the Vermont senator’s Democratic presidential bid.

The presidential campaign of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) secured the endorsements of three additional New York lawmakers ahead of his comeback rally in Queens on Saturday: state Sens. Michael Gianaris and Jessica Ramos of Queens, and state Sen. Luis Sepúlveda of the Bronx.

“Bernie is the best candidate to fight back against the deep-pocketed corporate interests that weaken our democracy and exploit our economy,” Ramos, who unseated a Queens Democrat aligned with state Republicans in September 2018, said in a statement announcing her endorsement. “In Senator Sanders we have a leader who will protect all members of our society, especially those seeking human rights and better working conditions free from unethical practices.”

Gianaris, who as deputy state Senate majority leader is one of the most powerful Democrats in New York, echoed Ramos’ sentiments. “Bernie Sanders is the best choice to reduce this growing chasm between the ultra-rich and working people,” he said in a statement.

The trio joins a group of five New York lawmakers who had already endorsed Sanders’ bid: New York City Councilman Rafael Espinal, state Assemblymen Ron Kim and Phil Steck, and state Sens. Julia Salazar and James Sanders. (James Sanders is not related to the Vermont senator.)

Bernie Sanders To Hold Comeback Rally Across From Nation's Largest Public Housing Complex

The location, in the shadow of New York’s dirtiest power plant, is a deliberate choice by the senator and his campaign.

Excerpt:

The “Bernie’s Back” gathering is slated to take place in Queensbridge Park, which is in the shadow of both the country’s largest public housing development and New York’s dirtiest power plant. In a nod to his surroundings, Sanders plans to focus his remarks on expanding affordable housing and lifting up racially diverse, poor and working-class communities like those in the neighboring Queensbridge Houses.

“They’re going to ... try to capture the energy of the housing justice movement here,” said New York state Sen. Julia Salazar, a Sanders backer who unseated a Brooklyn Democrat in September 2018 on the strength of calls for greater tenant protections.

“Queensbridge was a deliberate choice,” a Sanders aide told HuffPost.

“It is a symbolic gesture by Bernie ... saying that this is no longer about being in the heart of Manhattan, this is about the working families in the outer boroughs who have been neglected,” said New York Assemblyman Ron Kim, a Flushing Democrat backing Sanders. “It’s a metaphor for all Americans who feel neglected by Wall Street.”



As Sanders speaks on Saturday, the smokestacks of the Ravenswood Generating Station, a fuel oil and natural gas plant, will tower above the park. Fittingly, Sanders will likely be discussing his twin priorities of fighting climate change and environmental injustice.
