Fallon Receives PCCI Endorsement
Thursday, May 1, 2008 (10:00 PM
CDT) - Ed Fallon today announced his
endorsement by the Progressive Coalition of
Central Iowa – Action (PCCI-A). Board President
Vern Naffier notified Fallon today that the
board of PCCI-A had voted unanimously to
support him in his bid to unseat incumbent
Congressman Leonard Boswell in Iowa’s Third
District.
Fallon expressed his gratitude for
the endorsement, saying, “I’m grateful to have
the support of PCCI-A. These folks are
community activists who have been working on
issues that have always been a focus of my own
political and community
involvement.”
Earlier in the campaign, one of
PCCI-A’s member organizations, STAR*PAC, also
endorsed Fallon’s candidacy.
PCCI-A is a 501(c)(5) corporation
that exists separately from PCCI, a 501(c)(3)
organization. Naffier acknowledged that PCCI-A
would not be making a financial contribution,
as Fallon does not accept contributions from
PACs and paid lobbyists.
