Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill is endorsing an effort to organize a potential 2016 Hillary Rodhman Clinton presidential campaign, becoming the first sitting member of Congress to back the effort.

In a statement posted Tuesday on the website of the political action committee Ready for Hillary, McCaskill said "It's important that we start early, building a grass-roots army from the ground up, and effectively using the tools of the Internet – all things that President Obama did so successfully – so that if Hillary does decide to run, we'll be ready to help her win."
