Morgan said in response: "I would like to
thank Comptroller DiNapoli for his endorsement. As our state's chief
fiscal officer, the Comptroller has aggressively fought public corruption, the
misuse of taxpayers' dollars, fiscal gimmicks, and government inefficiency. He
has strengthened one of the nation's top public pension funds, with New York's
now standing at an all-time high audited value of $207.4 billion. Simply put, Tom
is a man of integrity with a track record of fighting for the working class. He
knows exactly what it means to put people over politics. I am humbled and proud
to have his endorsement in my race to represent the taxpayers, families,
retirees, and workers of WNY in the 57th Senate district.”
Morgan
has been previously endorsed by Senator Tim Kennedy, the United Auto Workers,
the Southwestern NY Building and Construction Trades Council, the Public
Employees Federation, Run for Something, and the NYS Young Democrats Rural
Caucus.
