Moderate Democratic Group Backs New Candidates in Key Congressional Races
April 17, 2026
The New Democrat Coalition is backing a slate of congressional candidates that it believes are primed to win in some of the most difficult races across the country in November’s midterms.
On Friday, the coalition of moderates announced a slate of six new endorsements for candidates whom it says are critical to Democrats winning a majority in the House of Representatives. They are running for seats from Colorado’s 5th Congressional District to North Carolina’s 11th Congressional District.
