NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota looks to elect a strong pro-choice Governor for Minnesota in 2010

Saint Paul, MN – Linnea House, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota, announced that her organization proudly endorsed Mark Dayton for Minnesota Governor. NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota represents over 39,000 member activists in Minnesota.
“We are proud to support a candidate that will be a strong advocate for Minnesota women. I know that he will work tirelessly to protect a woman’s right to choose,” House said.
Mark Dayton states "I am very honored to have the endorsement of NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota. I have strongly supported a woman's right to choose throughout my entire career, and am committed to protecting women's rights if I am elected Governor."
House said NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota will work hard to ensure that Dayton is elected to the Governor’s office and is confident he will represent our Minnesota values, including protecting reproductive health and freedom.
House added, “NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota is committed to doing all that we can to ensure that women in Minnesota are able to make personal, private decisions about pregnancy and parenting -- and that includes protecting safe, legal abortion and improving access to birth control. One of the best things voters can do this year is to support candidates who do the same, which is why we are encouraging voters to support Mark Dayton.”
“Opponents of a woman’s right to choose have proven time and again that they are willing to sacrifice the health and well-being of women and families to promote their extreme agenda,” House concluded. “That’s why it is so important for voters to know that Mark Dayton is the only pro-choice ticket in this race.”
