Merkley Puts His Support Behind Van Hollen for Senate Majority Leader 

Washington, D.C. – Today, Oregon’s Senator Jeff Merkley posted the following on social media: 

“Americans are desperate to restore government by and for the people, not the privileged and powerful. 

“We need leadership that carries that responsibility in their heart and gut. 

“Senator Chris Van Hollen is that leader. I’ve seen him rally support for the people against the powerful time and time again. 

“He has my full support for Majority Leader. 

“Politics as usual is unacceptable. The American people have given us the opportunity to deliver. Let’s seize the day and make it happen.”
