Yesterday, Senator Bernie Sanders proudly declared his support for Hillary Clinton at a rally in New Hampshire. “Together, we have begun a political revolution to transform America and that revolution continues,” said Sanders, calling on Democrats to unite. He added that this election is not about one candidate, but about needs of the American people and addressing the very serious crises that we face.

“Hillary Clinton will make an outstanding president and I am proud to stand with her today.”

— Bernie Sanders, July 12, 2016

Following his endorsement, student leaders from across Florida joined Bernie Sanders in supporting Secretary Clinton and urged fellow students to unite behind her to defeat Donald Trump.

“During the primary, Bernie’s progressive platform inspired me and so many others to get involved in the political system. Bernie’s political revolution will continue if we all work together to elect a Democrat to the White House. I believe that Hillary Clinton will deliver on the progressive promise of the Democratic platform and build a system that works for everyone, not just a handful of people. Secretary Clinton is a tireless leader of the American people and I am proud to say that I am now with her.”

— Molly Vise, Co-founder of Progressive Gators and graduate of University of Florida

“The truth is that Senator Sanders and Secretary Clinton have always shared far more areas of agreement than disagreement. I’m excited to join Bernie in helping elect Hillary as our next president. Hillary’s experience, temperament, and courage makes her qualified to lead our country forward while Trump’s divisive and dangerous rhetoric would send our country back. I’m proud of Senator Senators for endorsing Secretary Clinton because our country and our party are stronger together.”

— Gianna Trocino, Leadership Committee Member of Noles for Bernie and student at Florida State University

“While I supported Sanders in the primary and continue to support everything he believes in, with Bernie Sanders’ endorsement, the time has come for his supporters to acknowledge that Hillary Clinton is the Democratic Party’s presumptive nominee and that we must all unite behind her. As President, Secretary Clinton will protect this country’s youth by raising wages, expanding health care, and making college more affordable. I am committed to electing Secretary Clinton as the next President and encourage students across Florida to join in our fight to keep the country moving forward. Given that Donald Trump supports flat-out dangerous policies, this choice could not be clearer.”

— George Thurlow, New College of Florida College Democrats President & Florida College Democrats Secretary
