Vogel Picks Up Congressional Backing
Submitted by the Vogel campaign staff
Congressman Paul Tonko has endorsed Brittany Vogel’s campaign for New York State Assembly for the 107th District. Congressman Tonko has long been an advocate for the Capital Region’s working class, supporting policies that create jobs and bring economic opportunity to his constituents. Rep. Tonko currently serves on the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and was elected chair of the subcommittee on the Environment and Climate Change.
“We need leaders in our state legislature to tackle the issues facing our communities, like protecting our air and water, creating jobs and rebuilding our infrastructure. Brittany Vogel understands that we must prepare for the broader challenges that lie ahead because her voice has been shaped by her family and community,” said Congressman Tonko. “I am proud to endorse Brittany because of her passion, empathy and commitment to facing these challenges on behalf of the residents of the 107th Assembly District head on.” “As a manager of 120 essential workers, I have had my finger on the pulse of our community during an incredibly difficult time. I witness my associates’ and customers’ struggles daily, and it is evident that our shared needs and interests are not being met in the Assembly. If elected, my loyalty and commitment will be to the constituents of the 107th District, many of whom are working people who lack a voice in our current government,” said Vogel. “I am honored to have the endorsement of Congressman Tonko, who has dedicated decades of his life to serving the working people of the Capital Region and created impactful change in his constituents’ lives.”
