The New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has endorsed Assembly Member Claire Valdez’s campaign to succeed U.S. Rep. Nydia Velázquez in the 7th Congressional District, pledging that Valdez’s campaign will be “powered by the same volunteer army” that helped propel Mayor Zohran Mamdani to victory last year.
NYC DSA Co-Chair Gustavo Gordillo joined DSA members at Brooklyn’s Macri Triangle Friday morning to announce the endorsement and described Valdez as a “leader who stands with workers.”
