NYWFP Endorses Hundreds of Candidates for Office in 2025

Now more than ever, New Yorkers are looking to local leaders to stand up for working families in the face of Trump’s chaos and fear. This year we’re endorsing hundreds of candidates up and down the state who will stand up for working families and stand up to billionaires.

This year we’re proud to be supporting candidates across New York State who are committed to addressing the real needs of working people. In 2025, we’re making big plays to power all across the state. Our endorsed candidates are shining stars in otherwise dark times.
