CA-SEN: Former rivals Lee, Porter throw support behind Schiff in California [View all]
Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) on Wednesday joined Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif.) in officially endorsing Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) for the Senate seat they all three sought.
Schiff will face former baseball star Steve Garvey, a Republican, in the general election, after they emerged as the top two vote-getters in the state’s nonpartisan primary in March.
“Californians have a clear choice this November in who they want representing them in the Senate — a Trump apologist or a defender of democracy,” Lee said in a Wednesday statement. “Now more than ever, we need to elect people like Adam Schiff, who will stand up against the autocrats looking to divide this country and dismantle our democracy.”
“For decades in Congress, I’ve worked alongside Adam to deliver for Californians. I’m honored to endorse him for the United States Senate,” she added.
