Elizabeth Warren endorses Kara Eastman in 2nd District House race (Omaha)


By Aaron Sanderford World-Herald staff writer Apr 22, 2020 Updated 47 min ago

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, endorsed House candidate Kara Eastman Wednesday in the Democratic primary to represent the Omaha area.

Warren, who earned the third most delegates in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary before dropping out last month, encouraged 2nd District voters to embrace Eastman as an agent of change.

“She is exactly the kind of person we need in Congress to join the fight on health care, tackling student debt and taking on corporate power,” Warren said.

Warren endorsed 20 candidates on Wednesday at different levels of government, all women.
