"I'm endorsing Tracey Brooks for Congress in New York's 21st district because she knows it's time to end the war in Iraq and invest that money here at home," said Congresswoman Maloney, who represent parts of Manhattan and Queens and is a national leader with extensive accomplishments on security, financial services, the economy, and women's issues.
"Tracey brings hands-on community experience to Congress and will be a strong voice for families on guaranteeing health care for all, protecting a woman's right to choose, and getting our economy back on track," continued Congresswoman Maloney.
As a renowned champion for domestic and international women's issues, Maloney helped pass legislation to target sex trafficking and provide annual mammograms for women on Medicare. Time Magazine has called Maloney a 'tenacious, resilient legislator.' Maloney has also recently authored a book on the need for pay equity.
"I'm absolutely thrilled to have the endorsement and support of Congresswoman Maloney, a strong voice for all New Yorkers and someone whose leadership and advocacy I've always admired," Brooks said. "Our campaign continues to gain momentum as I speak directly to the voters on issues important to them like ending the war in Iraq, providing affordable health care for all, standing up for a woman's right to choose, and addressing skyrocketing gas prices."
The Brooks campaign will be sending out its fourth mailer, this time focusing on health care.
