Secretary of State
July 28, 2022 — Today, Tanisha Sullivan’s campaign for
Secretary of State announced receiving the endorsement of former Congressman
Joe Kennedy III, marking the latest prominent showing of support for Tanisha.
The announcement comes on the heels of endorsements from Congresswoman Ayanna
Pressley, Congressman Seth Moulton, SEIU 1199 and 509, the Greater Boston
Building Trades, IBEW Local 103, Elect Black Women, the Massachusetts Women’s
Political Caucus and more than 60 state and municipal officials. She is also

“We are at a moment in time that demands a
bold defense of American democracy and courageous leaders willing to go
toe-to-toe with those who think our political system was built for some, not
for all,” said Kennedy. “Over the course of her impressive career, Tanisha
Sullivan has earned her place in a rising generation of civil rights champions
uniquely poised to meet this challenge. She will not hesitate to ensure that
Massachusetts is second to none when it comes to fair elections, equal access
to the ballot box, and a vibrant, inclusive democracy. I am honored to endorse
her to be Massachusetts’ next Secretary of State.”
“I am grateful to have the support of
Congressman Kennedy and appreciate his commitment to building an inclusive
democracy and ensuring economic opportunity for all, which are reflected in his
public service as both an elected official and in his current advocacy work,”
said Sullivan. “We share a deep belief that democracy can work for all of us,
but we also have to work FOR it.”
