Phil Steck announced that he is thrilled to receive the endorsement of the Hudson Mohawk chapter of Democracy for America. Democracy for America is the nation's largest progressive political action community and was founded in 2004 by Governor Howard Dean.
“I am very pleased to have the support of the local chapter of Democracy for America, an organization that is a grassroots powerhouse,” said Steck. “DFHMR is a vocal advocate for reform and grassroots action in the Capital Region and they have taken the lead to inform voters about this important election.”
DFHMR played an active role in organizing for the successful campaign of Congresswoman Kirsten Gillibrand in 2006. DFHMR requires a 2/3 vote to get their endorsement.
Steck added: “I have been organizing at the community level to bring about real change in my own community in Colonie. Now, more than ever, we need community-based values in Washington.”
