Assemblymember Latrice Walker
“As an Assemblymember representing Brownsville, I am proud to endorse Eli Northrup to represent the Upper West Side in the Assembly.

Assemblymember Harvey Epstein
“Eli has spent his career fighting for working-class New Yorkers and championing the issues that matter most to our communities: affordable housing, community safety, and environmental justice.

I have seen first-hand how hard he fights for his neighbors and New Yorkers in need, and I know he will continue to be a tireless advocate for people in need. I am proud to endorse Eli Northrup for the New York State Assembly."

“Eli understands what it means to serve. For years, he has shown up in Albany to make a difference for not just his neighborhood, but for all New Yorkers. Albany is a tough place to navigate and an even tougher place to get things done. Eli has shown time and time again that he knows how to get results for the people who need him most.

“Eli Northrup is the kind of partner we need in Albany. He is smart, principled, and committed. Like me, he spent his career as a public defender fighting for justice and building coalitions to get things done. I’m endorsing Eli for State Assembly because we need more practitioners with real experience that know the cracks in the system from seeing their failures - public defenders see everyday the failures that need fixing."
