New York Working Families Party Endorses Dylan Hewitt in Race for NY-21

Glens Falls, NY –  After earning the endorsement of the New York Working Families Party, NY-21 congressional candidate Dylan Hewitt released the following statement:

“Big monopolies have rigged our economy and corrupted our democracy, and spineless politicians are protecting them,” said Hewitt. “From fighting for guaranteed healthcare to lowering outrageous utility bills, the Working Families Party stands with working people — and so do I. As the only candidate in NY-21 who supports Medicare For All and is willing to hold the line against Kristi Noem’s masked agents terrorizing our country, I’m honored to have the WFP’s support in our movement to build a fairer, more affordable future.”

New York Working Families Party leaders cited Hewitt’s commitment to delivering a home New Yorkers can afford, expanding access to childcare, lowering healthcare costs, and defending immigrant communities from federal attacks in their endorsement.

The June primary for New York’s 21st Congressional seat will be a critical opportunity to elect leaders who are prepared to fight for working people and deliver bold, permanent solutions to the affordability crisis, not one who will continue the corporate corruption politics of Elise Stefanik under a new name.

Dylan Hewitt is a seventh-generation Upstate New Yorker, born and raised in South Glens Falls. At 17, he led the South High Marathon Dance, a hometown tradition that has raised millions for families to afford basic needs and medical expenses. He served our country as a White House Trade Official and held a top-secret clearance to protect American workers, take on rising costs, and strengthen our national security. Now, Dylan Hewitt is running for Congress to fight for a fairer, more affordable future in the North Country — where a full-time job pays enough to raise a family and no one has to drive two hours just to see a doctor.
