Christ Lutheran Church, Alaska Republican Party, NRA, ABC Crisis Pregnancy Center, Sons of the American Legion. Went door to door on the abortion parental consent initiative with the entire family (my district ended up heavily in support). I support the Alaska Family Council and your mission (although you have not asked for financial support in a while, I am happy to always support)
Please list any organizational endorsements you have received to date and/or significant individual endorsements.
There is not yet much focus on this primary, but I have been supported by the Alaska Family Council and most of the private sector business organizations. We are just kicking off, but so far I have been in contact with pro-family/pro-life individuals ready to endorse and publicly support (Loren Leman for example).
