Endorsements
Tony Vargas is proud to be endorsed by:
"The bi-partisan work Tony Vargas has done as a State Senator to provide opportunities for working Nebraskans, proves he is willing to work across party lines to pass legislation that benefits all Nebraskans and not just take the easy path and vote for bills with majority bi-partisan support."
Barry Mayfield, Labor Leader
"I believe the thinking of Senator Tony Vargas more closely aligns with the thinking and needs of the majority of the people in this district. We need a fresh, more community focused perspective. I therefore wholeheartedly support the candidacy of Tony Vargas as our next Congressman of Nebraska’s Second District."
Pastor T. Michael Williams, Faith Leader
"As a medical professional, I support Tony because I have seen how he has elevated our voices during the fight for reproductive and maternal healthcare, including expanding postpartum Medicaid coverage from two to twelve months, for his work to invest in public health funding, cancer research, and for his pledge to protect access to IVF."
Dr. Elizabeth Constance, Medical Policy Leader
"I support Tony because I have seen from his eight years in the Legislature that he knows how to deliver for working families, uplift small businesses in our community, and bring people together to accomplish transformational projects."
Itzel Lopez, Economic Development Leader
