Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Ben Ray Luján issued the following statement on the results of tonight’s primary election in New York’s 14th Congressional District:
“Joe Crowley is a dedicated public servant who has represented Queens and the Bronx with distinction, compassion and tireless energy. My friend Joe’s leadership will be sorely missed by not only his constituents but the entire Democratic Caucus, and I know he will not give up the fight for the Democratic principles and values that we hold dear.
“Congratulations to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who will be a fierce advocate for New York families in Congress.”
