Phoenix, Ariz. – Jason Williams, one of the leading candidates for Superintendent of Public Instruction, announced today that the Equality Arizona Political Action Committee (PAC) has exclusively endorsed his candidacy. In a statement sent Friday, the gay and lesbian advocacy organization said they are excited to work with candidates “who are willing to step up to build a better, more inclusive Arizona.”
“As an openly-gay candidate, not only do my life experiences shape my views on equality issues, but my drive to ensure every child - including every lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender child - has access to an excellent public education will guide my decisions as Superintendent of Public Instruction,” said Williams. “I am thankful for having received the endorsement of Equality Arizona, then-Arizona Human Rights Fund, in the 2006 election, and I am honored to be working with them to win this election.”Equality Arizona is Arizona’s only statewide LGBT civil rights organization working to secure, protect and defend the rights and welfare of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in Arizona. Equality Arizona Advocacy Fund engages in political advocacy and electoral action to create change on the state and local levels.
