NJ-12: Robinson (D) endorsed by well-funded veterans group

With Honor Fund will support Somerset County Commissioner Shanel Robinson (D-Franklin) for the 12th congressional district, giving Robinson a well-funded ally in the crowded Democratic primary for the seat.

The national group is a “cross-partisan organization dedicated to electing military veterans,” and Robinson is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force Reserves. Notably, she’s not the only military veteran running for the district; Adam Hamawy and Rick Morales, both U.S. Army veterans and doctors, are also in the race.

“As an Air Force Veteran and Somerset County Commissioner Director, [Robinson] has dedicated her career to serving her community with integrity,” With Honor Fund said in a brief statement.

With Honor Fund has allied with other New Jersey politicians in the past, most prominently Gov. Mikie Sherrill and Rep. Herb Conaway (D-Delran). The group spent more than $900,000 over the course of several election cycles to support Sherrill, and another $229,000 during Conaway’s campaign for an open seat in 2024.
