Recently, Congressman Peter Roskam (R-Ill.) of Illinois’ 6th Congressional District asked a journalist in an interview why women can have abortions if rapists cannot be executed.
It was incorrectly reported tonight that the Los Angeles Chapter of NOW had endorsed Gov. Sarah Palin’s bid for vice president. The National Organization for Women PAC has endorsed Barack Obama and Joe Biden. No chapter of NOW has made a contrary endorsement.
NOW PAC Chair Kim Gandy stated, “It is with great enthusiasm that I announce today, on behalf of the nation’s oldest and largest women’s rights organization, that the National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) proudly endorses Sen. Barack Obama for President of the United States.”
On Tuesday, September 16, the National Organization for Women PAC, Feminist Majority PAC, Business and Professional Women/PAC, National Association of Social Workers PACE, National Congress of Black Women, and the Women’s Information Network will make a decisive announcement regarding the 2008 presidential election.
NOW PAC Chair Kim Gandy said, “Sen. John McCain’s choice of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate is a cynical effort to appeal to disappointed Hillary Clinton voters and get them to vote, ultimately, against their own self-interest.”
