Progressive Massachusetts is pleased to announce that it is endorsing Congressman Ed Markey for US Senate in the Democratic Primary. Congressman Markey received more than 97% of the votes cast by the organization’s members. This overwhelming support reflects, we believe, Congressman Markey’s leadership on issues that matter to our members – climate change, women’s rights and economic justice for working families.

“Congressman Markey will champion progressive policies in the Senate and will serve as true partner for Elizabeth Warren there,” said Deborah Shah, Executive Director. “Too much is at stake at this time – investment in our future, immigration reform, global warming and energy independence, gun control. We must have someone who will fight for our values and for the progressive solutions that are best for our nation and our Commonwealth.”
