House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (D) endorsed Democratic former state delegate Heather R. Mizeur’s 1st District congressional bid Wednesday, and said in a statement that she would be a “major asset” to the state’s congressional delegation if elected. “During her time in Annapolis, Heather was known as a bold leader who worked tirelessly to tackle our state’s toughest challenges through bringing people together and building consensus,” Hoyer said in a Wednesday statement. “I know Heather’s values, I know her record, and I trust that her first priority in Congress will always be the people of her district.”
