Today, in a video posted to Twitter, Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey announced his support for John Hickenlooper’s campaign for Senate. Senator Booker first got to know Hickenlooper when they served as Mayors of Newark and Denver and cited Hickenlooper’s ability to bring people together to get things done in his endorsement video.
“I came to admire John as an innovator, an incredible consensus builder, a person who got things done,” said Senator Booker. “The honor, the kindness, and the decency that is who he is is one of the reasons he rose to be the governor of the state. John continues to be that kind of leader, unifying people, building bridges, finding ways to move Colorado forward. This is why we need him in the United States Senate — he is exactly what our nation needs in the Capitol.”

“I’m humbled to earn the endorsement of Senator Cory Booker,” said Hickenlooper. “He has proven that Mayors can do great things in the Senate, and I hope to join him there! I look forward to working with Senator Booker shoulder to shoulder to lower health care costs, reform our criminal justice system — including our federal marijuana laws — and ensure equal justice for all Americans.”
