Bronx Council Member Althea Stevens joined 12 colleagues in announcing their endorsement of incumbent Rep. Jamaal Bowman for the District 16 U.S. Congressional seat, where he currently represents a small section of the north Bronx and parts of Westchester County. Bowman, who was elected in 2020, is the first Black person to hold the seat.
With the primary election coming in 10 days, Bowman’s race against Westchester County Executive George Latimer has become one of the most-watched races in the country.
