From a press release received from Kim McMillan For Governor earlier this week:
Clarksville, Tennessee – January 11, 2010 - Kim McMillan has received the endorsement of the National Women’s Political Caucus. It is the second national endorsement the gubernatorial candidate’s campaign has announced in the last week.
“This endorsement means a great deal to me,” McMillan said, “because the National Women’s Political Caucus is a multipartisan, multicultural grassroots organization dedicated to achieving equality for all women. Their support isn’t given just to candidates on the Democratic ticket and I’m very proud to receive their backing.”
“Women are historically underrepresented in policy formation and discriminated against when running for office. Women typically come to politics to solve a problem. They come as moms, nurses, and teachers. While Kim McMillan is a mom and an educator, she is also the first woman in Tennessee history elected Majority Leader of the State House of Representatives, experienced in policy and economic development, and a small business owner. She has the knowledge, experience and dedication to lead Tennessee into a better, stronger future” said Lulu Flores, President of the National Caucus.
