Baltimore, MD – Today, Sean D. Burns, Candidate for the Maryland House of Delegates – District 46 announces that U.S. Rep. C.A. “Dutch” Ruppersberger (D-MD-02) has officially endorsed his candidacy.
Ruppersberger, the longtime Congressman for the 2nd Congressional District, which has historically covered most of the 46th Legislative District, is the latest leader to announce support for Burns. Burns worked with Congressman Ruppersberger while he served as Deputy Director of Federal Relations during Governor Martin O’Malley’s administration.
“I am proud to endorse Sean D. Burns for the House of Delegates in District 46,” said Rep. C.A. “Dutch” Ruppersberger. “I believe that Sean’s intelligence and experience make him the best candidate to replace Brooke Lierman in the House of Delegates. I know Sean can hit the ground running and will be a tireless advocate for the residents of District 46.”
“I am humbled to receive the endorsement of Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger,” said Sean D. Burns. “I am honored by Congressman Ruppersberger’s confidence in my ability to represent the residents of District 46 in the Maryland House of Delegates.”
Burns, an attorney and longtime public servant with over 20 years of experience working in government, has established relationships with community leaders and officials across all levels of government. Congressman Ruppersberger’s endorsement is another example of the excitement surrounding Burns’ candidacy. After recently picking up the endorsement of U.S. Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D-MD-07), Burns has the distinction of being the only candidate in the race with the endorsements of key members of Congress.
