Congresswoman Delia Ramírez Endorses Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate 

MICHIGAN – Today, Congresswoman Delia Ramírez (IL-03) endorsed Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate. A fighter for working people and an outspoken voice for immigrant communities, Ramírez has represented Chicago in the U.S. House since 2023. She is the fifth U.S. House member to endorse El-Sayed’s campaign. 

“In this moment when billionaires are stealing from working families, our immigrant communities are being terrorized, and billions of our taxpayer dollars are funding wars and genocide – we need leaders who are clear on where they stand, who they represent, and what they fight for,” said Rep. Ramírez. “That’s why I’m proud to endorse Dr. Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate. Together, we are building a coalition that will tax the rich, create a just immigration system, pursue peace, and provide our communities with what they need to thrive, not just survive.”  

“Rep. Ramírez has never backed down in protecting and fighting for her communities,” said Abdul. “She is the kind of grassroots leader that this movement is made of. I’m so grateful for her support as we continue to build the momentum needed to make government finally work on behalf of working people, not the billionaire class. I’m looking forward to working side by side in Washington to ensure immigrant communities are protected, our tax dollars are spent on our kids, not to drop bombs on other kids and to give the power back to the people. Together, we can have nice things.” 

Rep. Ramírez the fifth current U.S. House member to endorse Abdul, joining Reps. Ro Khanna (CA-17), Rashida Tlaib (MI-12), Pramila Jayapal (WA-07) and Summer Lee (PA-12). Abdul has also earned the support of Sen. Bernie Sanders, and three former congressmembers: Attorney General Keith Ellison, the Hon. David Bonior, and the Hon. Andy Levin. Beyond members of Congress, Abdul has earned support from over 100 state and local elected officials, and advocacy groups including Common Defense, Progressive Change Campaign Committee, Beyond the Ballot and more.
