Today, Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vermont, I) endorsed Rev. Raphael Warnock for the upcoming “jungle primary” U.S. Senate race in Georgia. Sanders issued the following statement in support:
“Throughout decades of leadership in Georgia on voting rights, health care and criminal justice reform, Rev. Raphael Warnock has fought tirelessly for the security and dignity of working people. As Georgia’s next Senator, he will stand up for an agenda to address our public health crisis, end poverty, tackle the climate crisis and build an economy that works for all of us – not just those at the top. He’s building a grassroots movement to uplift and represent all Georgians, and I am pleased to endorse his campaign for U.S. Senate.”
