You know it’s election season when the endorsements come rolling in, and at Team Dean, we couldn’t be more proud of one of the first to arrive….
⭐️⭐️ ENDORSEMENT ALERT ⭐️⭐️ Gun violence prevention organization, Giffords, has officially endorsed Mad! Here’s why:
“Rep. Madeleine Dean is exactly the kind of solutions-oriented champion we need leading the way on this issue if we want to make continued progress and keep our communities safe. We must send her back to Capitol Hill next fall, where we know she’ll continue to stand up to the gun lobby and anyone else who tries to stand in the way of a safer future for the next generation.”
– Giffords, 2024
