NARAL PRO-CHOICE MARYLAND PAC ENDORSES CHERYL
KAGAN FOR STATE SENATE
SILVER SPRING, MD--Today, the
Political Action Committee of NARAL Pro-Choice Maryland endorsed Cheryl
Kagan for State Senate for District 17. NARAL Pro-Choice Maryland PAC
is dedicated to electing pro-choice candidates who will provide
leadership on issues of reproductive health.
“NARAL Pro-Choice
Maryland PAC is proud to endorse Cheryl Kagan for State Senate. It is
wonderful to have two candidates running in District 17 who support
reproductive freedom. However, we believe that Cheryl Kagan will be a
real leader for reproductive health care issues in the Maryland
legislature,” said NARAL Pro-Choice Maryland PAC Chair Tracy Terrell.
During
her years in the House of Delegates, and as a staffer for NARAL
Pro-Choice America, Cheryl Kagan demonstrated her commitment to
pro-choice values. Moreover, she showed leadership on reproductive
health issues such as being the lead sponsor on legislation requiring
emergency rooms to offer emergency contraception to rape victims.
“We
are thrilled to have such a strong pro-choice leader in this race,”
said NARAL Pro-Choice Maryland Executive Director, Jennifer Blasdell.
“I
am thrilled to receive the endorsement of an organization that has a
long history of standing up on women's issues,” stated Cheryl Kagan. "I
firmly believe that women have the right to make their own reproductive
choices. I look forward to continuing to work with NARAL Pro-Choice
Maryland and its members to protect these important rights."
