Pressley, who makes up the fourth member of progressive group of freshmen Democrats who have come to call themselves the 'Squad,' stayed silent until Wednesday, when she endorsed her home-state senator. 'I have seen Elizabeth in small church basements and in packed gymnasiums.
Democratic Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts endorsed Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Wednesday, delivering the front-runner candidate one of her biggest profile endorsements so far in the 2020 race and solidifying her break from the so-called"Squad."
"I have seen Elizabeth in small church basements and in packed gymnasiums. And she is consistent. She never loses sight of the people," Pressley said in a video released on Wednesday for her endorsement of Warren. Pressley was the first black woman elected to Congress from Massachusetts when she won her race in 2018. Her endorsement and participation in the campaign could lend a strong voice to Warren’s efforts in the south, where she continues to trail her opponents, especially in polling of black voters who make up a significant part of the electorate.
In 2018, Warren stayed out of Pressley’s challenge of incumbent Democratic Rep. Michael Capuano, not endorsing either of them and, in doing so, slighting Capuano. She then campaigned with Pressley through the general election. Warren trails Biden in big-name endorsements, according to FiveThirtyEight’s endorsement tracker, which stems in part from the many of the country’s most prominent Democrats from endorsing this early in such a crowded race.
