Today, the Don Saylor for State Assembly Campaign announced the endorsement of the Sacramento Stonewall Democrats.
In announcing the endorsement, Sacramento Stonewall Democrats President Jann Dorothy said, “Don Saylor has a record of fighting for equal rights for all. Throughout his career, Don has fought to give a voice to the unheard and our most vulnerable populations. Don has been a valuable ally to the LGBTQ community and we are excited to help elect him to the Assembly.”
Saylor said, “As a proud LGBTQ ally, I am honored to earn the endorsement of Sacramento Stonewall Democrats. I’ve dedicated my life to ensuring that everyone in our society has a fair shot. I look forward to working with LGBTQ leaders throughout Assembly District 4 and across our state to lead on policies that support equality for all.”
The mission of the Sacramento Stonewall Democrats is to advance equal rights for all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
