Former presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren may be staying silent on her endorsement, but several of her former staffers are not.
Over 30 Warren campaign alumni signed a letter officially endorsing Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vt.) campaign. The letter outlines the values that the staffers are looking for in a candidate including policies for working families, marginalized communities and the environment.
The letter reads, “That’s why the best option for Warren Democrats right now is to support Bernie Sanders for President, in addition to fighting for Democratic victories across the board in Senate, House, and local races.”
Warren’s former regional organizing director tweeted, “We, the undersigned former alumni of Warren for President, are ready to get back in the fight for a progressive future by endorsing Bernie Sanders for President!”

The letter acknowledges the dilemma supporters may be facing in selecting a candidate to endorse.
“We also understand and respect that many Warren supporters are still processing their feelings as well,” the former staffers wrote, adding, “We urge them to take care of themselves first and we stand ready to welcome them back into the fight when they are ready.”
