Jayapal Backs Cisneros Over Cuellar

“Jessica Cisneros (D)has picked up a key endorsement from Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), who leads the Congressional Progressive Caucus, in her primary bid against Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX),” Politico reports.

“Cuellar, the only House Democrat who opposes abortion rights, is facing a competitive runoff election next Tuesday in his Texas district against Cisneros, who has sought to make abortion a top issue in the race in the wake of a disclosure earlier this month of a draft Supreme Court decision that revealed the Supreme Court had voted to overturn Roe v. Wade.”
