New York, NY - Dan Goldman, candidate for Congress in NY-10 and lead counsel for Trump’s first impeachment, was today endorsed by the East Harlem Democratic Club and the Phil Reed Democratic Club. The two clubs join a growing coalition of community leaders and organizations rallying support behind Goldman.

“The East Harlem Dems are thrilled to be endorsing Dan Goldman for NY-10. His integrity, public service, and commitment to fostering democratic values will make him an invaluable representative in Congress. We are looking forward to working together in the future to preserve our Democracy.” said East Harlem Dems President Robert Scott.

“The Phil Reed Democratic Club proudly endorses Dan Goldman for the 10th Congressional District. Dan is committed to being a champion for our shared progressive values including LGBTQ+ rights, reproductive rights, and racial justice in a time where our fundamental rights are at stake.” said Phil Reed Democratic Club President Pat Martin.

“I am grateful to have the support of Manhattan institutions like the East Harlem Democratic Club and the Phil Reed Democratic Club,” Dan Goldman said. “These clubs are a crucial part of our political process in New York and have an invaluable ear to the ground on the issues that matter most to New Yorkers.”

Dan Goldman and his wife, Corinne, live in lower Manhattan where they are raising their five children. In 2019, Dan Goldman served as lead counsel for the impeachment investigation of President Donald J. Trump for abusing his office for his personal interest regarding Ukraine. In that role, Goldman led depositions and questioned witnesses in public hearings, and testified before the House Judiciary Committee.

Prior to that, Goldman served for a decade as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York working with Preet Bharara. In that role, he held powerful actors accountable and made our city safer. He took on some of the office’s biggest and most consequential cases: prosecuting violent criminals and gun trafficking, mafia bosses and Russian organized crime, and landmark insider trading and major corporate fraud cases. In law school, Goldman contributed to Michelle Alexander’s seminal book, The New Jim Crow, which addressed the inequalities in our criminal justice system.

The Democratic Primary in New York’s 10th congressional district is on Tuesday, August 23.
