Progressive Democrats of America (PDA) Endorses Karishma Manzur for U.S. Senate
EXETER, N.H. — Karishma Manzur received the endorsement of the Progressive Democrats of America (PDA), a national grassroots organization focused on advancing peace, justice, economic opportunity, and a government that works for the prosperity of the American people.
The endorsement adds to the growing grassroots support for Manzur’s commitment to put people ahead of corporate and special interests. A scientist, peace activist, and progressive Democrat, Manzur is running on a policy platform centered on passing Medicare for All, lowering the cost of living, and restoring power to the people by confronting the influence of big money in politics.
Alan Minsky, Executive Director of Progressive Democrats of America (PDA), observed: "PDA endorses candidates across the entire United States. I can assure you that no one has a better understanding of the full progressive policy agenda, and why it is necessary at this moment in our history, than New Hampshire Senate candidate Karishma Manzur, who we proudly endorse. The American people need a Democratic party that responds to their needs which is exactly what the progressive agenda achieves. The party cannot continue to promote moderates like Chris Pappas who support the status quo. If they continue to do so, there is great risk that they will continue to reject the Democrats, which will empower MAGA and leave our democracy in peril. Karishma Manzur is the best candidate for the US Senate for the people of New Hampshire and for our Constitutional Democratic Republic.”
Welcoming the endorsement, Manzur responded: “I am very proud to receive the endorsement of Progressive Democrats of America. I share PDA’s conviction that change and lasting progress come from grassroots movements and a firm demand that our government serves the American people, not wealthy donors, corporate lobbyists, or political insiders.”
“PDA’s commitment to Medicare for All, economic and social justice, climate action, voting rights, peace, and human rights mirrors the values that are at the heart of our campaign. Our campaign’s slogan is Powered by the People, Not Billionaires because I want Granite Staters to know that as their Senator I will always put people first and deliver honest, effective, and compassionate leadership New Hampshire families deserve.”
This endorsement underscores the growing momentum behind Manzur’s campaign and the desire among New Hampshire voters for change and an alternative to politics as usual.
