Ninth District Democratic Party endorses Dr. Tim Peck for Congress

Endorsement represents unified voice from Democratic Party leadership in advance of primary filings
 
 NEW ALBANY, January 10, 2024 – The Ninth District Democratic Committee has announced the endorsement of Dr. Tim Peck of New Washington, Clark County, Indiana for U.S. Congress. The Committee, comprised of the duly elected Democratic Chairs and Vice Chairs of the Congressional District, formally undertook the action at a District Committee meeting in New Albany. The Congressional District comprises all or part of 18 counties in Southeastern Indiana and is currently represented by Republican Erin Houchin.
 
“Dr. Tim Peck represents a fresh approach to solving the problems facing Southern Indiana and our nation,” stated Ninth District Democratic Party Chair Adam Dickey. “Tim reflects values we hold dear – hard work, community, creating a better future for the next generation – and is ready to listen, find common ground, and be a voice for all constituents, regardless of their political affiliation.”
 
Dr. Peck, a former Harvard Medical School physician, teacher, and entrepreneur, has built strong momentum since announcing his candidacy a month ago raising more than $100,000 and receiving early endorsements from elected officials, party organizations, political action committees and now the District Party Committee.  The endorsements will ensure tight coordination between Peck’s campaign and the Party leading into the May primary and through to the general election.  
 
“The Ninth District Democratic Party Committee is a remarkable collection of public servants, and I’m honored to be among them and receive their endorsement in this critical moment in both local and national politics,” Peck said. “I look forward to working with party leadership, party constituents, and residents of our district from across the political spectrum to find and advance common sense solutions that work for all Hoosiers in Southeastern Indiana,” he added.
 
“The endorsement underscores the importance of this race and the degree to which my approach resonates with everyday Hoosiers,” Peck said. “Far too often Hoosiers feel left behind by empty political rhetoric and broken promises from Washington, and they want a member of Congress who will listen and fight for a better path forward– I will be that representative.”
 
Heidi Sellers, Vice Chair of the Clark County Democratic Party, supported the endorsement and believes Peck’s candidacy is turning heads.
 
“Tim represents something special in politics,” she stated. “At a time when others are narrowing their message to just a few voters who share their opinions, Tim is reaching out. He’s focusing on the fact that the issues we face aren’t Democrat, Republican or Libertarian in nature – they are American issues we must face and fix together.”
