Connie Britton Reacts to Friend Kirsten Gillibrand Dropping Out of 2020 Presidenital Race

Connie Britton has nothing but love and support for her friend Kirsten Gillibrand.

The 52-year-old New York Senator took to Twitter on Wednesday (August 28) to announce that she is dropping out of the 2020 Presidential race.

“Today, I am ending my campaign for president,” Kirsten tweeted along with a video announcement. “I am so proud of this team and all we’ve accomplished. But I think it’s important to know how you can best serve. To our supporters: Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Now, let’s go beat Donald Trump and win back the Senate.”

Shortly after, Connie reacted to the news of her former college roommate dropping out of the race.

“To my friend @SenGillibrand I want to say: thank you,” Connie tweeted. “You worked valiantly and intentionally, speaking so much truth to how we need to proceed as a nation. You have elevated the conversation, served with integrity, and will continue to. Bravely…with thanks and admiration.”
