FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 28, 2009 NARAL PRO-CHOICE VIRGINIA PAC ANNOUNCES ENDORSEMENT OF DELEGATE JOE BOUCHARD, DISTRICT 83 Endorsement highlights organization’s dedication to building a pro-choice majority in the Virginia House of Delegates (Alexandria, VA) – Today, NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia PAC, the commonwealth’s leading advocate for personal privacy and a woman’s right to choose, announced its endorsement of Delegate Joe Bouchard for House District 83, who is challenging anti-choice candidate Christopher Stolle. “Voters in House District 83 are fortunate to have had Delegate Bouchard representing their interests in Richmond, protecting their reproductive rights at the state level. We have the opportunity to support pro-choice Delegate Bouchard again this election cycle, recognizing his record of voting time and time again to secure access to reproductive healthcare for all Virginians,” said Tarina Keene, Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia. “Delegate Bouchard is running against anti-choice candidate Christopher Stolle, who promotes politics and ideology over healthcare, something especially concerning considering he is an OB/GYN.” “Delegate Bouchard is a pro-choice leader who will support measures to prevent unintended pregnancies and reduce the need for abortion – values the residents of the 83rd District look for in their legislators. We are thrilled to endorse Delegate Bouchard and look forward to continuing to work closely with him in years to come.” NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia supports candidates who are dedicated to family planning, preventing unintended pregnancy, and increasing access to reproductive healthcare for women and families. The organization’s powerful statewide network of activists will mobilize pro-choice voters throughout Virginia to help re-elect Delegate Bouchard and other pro-choice candidates in November.
