“Much is stake in this election in November. We need to send strong leaders back to Washington DC who continue to work for the people of their districts and our country,” said Randy Klein Chair of ANDD.

“Jim Himes is one of those leaders. He represents our diverse district with skill, ensuring representation for all residents of our cities and towns.

“During a time when Congress could have been distracted by the antics of the sitting president, Congressman Himes kept focused on doing the work of the American people.”
