CLEVELAND, Ohio - A second member of Congress who represents Cleveland endorsed former federal consumer watchdog Richard Cordray on Monday in his run for governor.

U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur, a Democrat from Toledo who represents parts of Cleveland, announced her support for Cordray, according to a press release from the Cordray campaign. Kaptur previously supported former U.S. Rep. Betty Sutton, who is now Cordray's running mate.

"From helping to stabilize and champion our vital auto manufacturing industry to reining in the abuses of Wall Street, this team has the experience to move Ohio forward and win in November," Kaptur said in a statement.

Cordray has received the endorsement from two of the four Democratic U.S. representatives in Ohio. U.S. Rep. Marcia Fudge, a Democrat from Warrensville Heights, has also backed Cordray after supporting Sutton.
