Former Congressman Jamaal Bowman Endorses Karishma Manzur for U.S. Senate
Progressive Leader Backs People-Powered Campaign to Represent New Hampshire
EXETER, NH (August 07, 2026)— Today, former Congressman Jamaal Bowman announced his endorsement of Karishma Manzur in New Hampshire's race for the United States Senate, calling her "precisely the kind of leader that this moment demands."
Bowman, a nationally recognized progressive leader, said Manzur is leading one of the country's most important grassroots Senate campaigns by refusing corporate PAC money, rejecting support from AIPAC, and building a movement centered on working people rather than special interests.
"Karishma is fearless, principled, and accountable to people, not power," Bowman said. "She refuses corporate PAC money. She won't take a dime from AIPAC. And she's fighting for Medicare for All, affordable housing, real climate action, and an end to the destruction of Palestine, Lebanon, and the rest of the Middle East. This is a race progressives can win, but only if we stand together in a truly people-powered campaign."
Manzur welcomed the endorsement, saying it reflects a growing national movement determined to reclaim the Democratic Party from corporate influence.
"I am deeply honored to have Rep. Jamaal Bowman's support," said Karishma Manzur. "He has never been afraid to stand up to powerful interests, even when it came at great personal and political cost. His courage has inspired people across the country, and I am proud to stand alongside him in the fight for a government that answers to everyday people instead of wealthy donors and special interests."
Manzur added, "This campaign is proving that New Hampshire voters are ready for something different. They want a Senator who cannot be bought, who will fight for Medicare for All, affordable housing, bold climate action, and a foreign policy rooted in human rights and peace. Rep. Bowman’s endorsement is a powerful reminder that this movement is bigger than any one candidate; it's about building a Democratic Party that delivers for working people."
