LGBTQ+ Victory Fund Endorses John Moran for 9th Suffolk District State Representative
BOSTON – Today, John Moran's campaign announced that LGBTQ+ Victory Fund – the only national organization dedicated to electing LGBTQ+ people to public office – has endorsed John Moran for State Representative. The endorsement signals Victory Fund's confidence that Moran is well-positioned to win the state representative race and will be a strong voice for equality once elected. Moran would be the first openly LGBTQ+ person to hold this seat, one that encompasses a historically LGBTQ+ population in the South End.
"LGBTQ+ Victory Fund is pleased to endorse John Moran for State Representative," said Mayor Annise Parker, President & CEO of LGBTQ Victory Fund. "John will bring a unique and important perspective to Beacon Hill and ensure all residents are considered when policy decisions are made. He will also make history when elected, becoming the first out LGBTQ+ person to represent this district."
"I am proud to earn the LGBTQ+ Victory Fund endorsement," said John Moran. "When I arrived in the South End 24 years ago, I was not completely confident in who I was as a gay man. What I found here, in the 9th Suffolk district, was a welcoming community that helped me to develop my voice and inspired my call to progressive values and real change. I look forward to giving back this great gift by working hard for all if I were to be elected your next State Representative."
