Washington — Today, the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC (CPC PAC) announced it has endorsed Dr. Adam Hamawy in the June 2nd primary election for New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District.
“A renowned surgeon who served as a first responder on 9/11, a combat trauma surgeon in Iraq and a volunteer who treated children in Gaza field hospitals, Dr. Adam Hamawy is an American hero who has devoted his life to serving others,” said CPC PAC Co-Chairs Pramila Jayapal, Greg Casar and Maxwell Frost. “Adam is running for Congress to create an America where everyone can thrive. His bold progressive campaign is centered around ending forever wars, abolishing ICE, making the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes and allowing everyone to get the health care they need through Medicare for All. Adam will be an amazing leader in Congress and we are thrilled to endorse his campaign.”
“I am proud to have earned the support of the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC,” said Dr. Adam Hamawy. “In New Jersey and across the country, voters are looking for leaders who will fight back against this corrupt administration and pursue an agenda that puts working people first. Congress needs to change its priorities — that’s why I am running to invest in health care, not bombs, to abolish ICE and to unrig our broken economy. I look forward to joining the CPC as progressives lead these fights in Congress.”
Over the past three election cycles, the CPC PAC has raised over $13 million and invested in progressive candidates across the country. Over the decade, a majority of CPC PAC’s pre-primary endorsements have gone on to win their race in the general election. In 2024, the CPC was the only ideological caucus to send new members to Congress in 50% or more of races in which its affiliated PAC made a pre-primary endorsement.
