WASHINGTON D.C. (September 29, 2025) — New Politics today endorsed former U.S. Army Captain and paratrooper, Jessica Killin, for Congress in Colorado’s 5th Congressional District.
Emily Cherniack, Founder and Executive Director of New Politics, released the following statement:
"Jessica Killin embodies the competence, courage, and character our country needs in Congress. She has never backed down from the call to serve, first leading soldiers overseas in peacekeeping missions before returning home to protect military families and serve in leadership roles in Washington. Jessica's unique combination of public service and private sector leadership makes her exactly the kind of principled leader we need to bridge divides and deliver results that matter. New Politics is honored to endorse Jessica’s campaign and support her as she steps up to serve once again.”
"Running to represent Colorado's 5th Congressional District is the honor of a lifetime," Killin said. "I will work tirelessly to make life better for my constituents, and I'm deeply grateful for the support I’ve already received across the district. I also appreciate the support of New Politics, which has served as a central advisor and coach as I continue serving my community and country."
