Another New Hampshire state senator backs Booker

New Hampshire State Sen. Martha Hennessey endorsed U.S. Sen. Cory Booker Friday.

“After years of Trump’s hatred and division, this election is about how we can heal our country. I believe Cory Booker is the right candidate to take on this critical challenge,” Hennessey said. “Cory has spent his entire career tackling the biggest problems and getting results. Just look at how he led on criminal justice reform — the only major, bipartisan bill signed under Trump.”

Booker has secured 82 endorsements from elected officials, activists and community leaders in the Granite state, 15 of which come from New Hampshire state lawmakers.

“After spending time with Cory in the Upper Valley, seeing him inspire at the convention in Manchester and watching him show a command of the issues and deliver a unifying message on the debate stage once again, I’m proud to endorse Cory for president,” Hennessey said. “Cory will motivate the voters we need to turn out in 2020, and, as president, repair the damage of the Trump years and make justice and opportunity real for every American.”
