Meghan Kallman Announces Eight Endorsements for State Senate Campaign
Pawtucket, RI: State Senate candidate and Pawtucket city councilor Meghan Kallman announces the support of eight community and labor groups working on a range of issues in Rhode Island. These groups include:
Planned Parenthood Votes! RI, the Rhode Island Building and Construction Trades Council, SEIU 1199, the Working Families Party, the Rhode Island chapter of the National Organization for Women, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, the Substance Use Policy, Education, and Recovery PAC, and Sunrise RI.
Kallman said, “I’m deeply honored that our campaign has earned the support from such a wide array of groups in our community. These groups work on the issues that matter most to Pawtucket and North Providence – fair labor practices and economic justice, reproductive healthcare, women’s rights, commonsense gun reform, the climate crisis that’s knocking at our door, and recovery from substance abuse. They are on the ground in our community, building a stronger and more just Rhode Island. I am honored to receive their support, and look forward to collaborating with these organizations for the betterment of my constituents as state senator.”
