Kennedy receives Working Families Party endorsement aggressive approach to governing. When funding to local schools was in jeopardy of being slashed, yet Wall Street Millionaires were slated to receive a tax bailout, Kennedy led the charge to ensure that our children were protected and that Wall Street paid its fair share. Kennedy stood strongly opposed to the proposal and helped mount a statewide effort to overturn it. “Tim Kennedy has consistently stood up for the hardworking families of Western New York,” said party co-chair, Paul Schuh. “He has brought a blue-collar mentality to the State Capitol, and he has worked tirelessly on issues that are important to this area, like job creation and economic development.” Since being elected in 2010 after defeating 30-year incumbent Bill Stachowksi and Republican Jack Quinn, III, Kennedy has worked to create jobs, protect children and families and stand up for Western New York. He now seeks re-election in the 63rd district, which includes the City of Buffalo, the town of Cheektowaga and the City of Lackawanna. Kennedy has now secured the endorsements of the Democratic Party, Independence Party and Working Families Party. |
