| With a special election run-off now set for December 18th, the race for HD-97 continues to heat up. In addition to the recent endorsements of Texas Parent PAC and the United Educators Association, Democratic nominee Dan Barrett has picked up the endorsement of the Texas League of Conservation Voters. From Kuff...
The Texas League of Conservation Voters (TLCV), a coalition of Texans committed to clean air, clean water, and access to public lands, water, fish and wildlife, has endorsed Dan Barrett for state Representative in the District 97 Special Election run-off.
"Dan Barrett is the candidate most committed to cleaning up Fort Worth's air, holding polluters accountable, and ensuring that Texas leads the way toward an independent, clean, and sustainable energy future ," said TLCV's executive director, Colin Leyden.
"Unlike his opponent, Dan Barrett has pledged to support a new vision of Texas politics. He rejects the dangerous and extreme ideology that claims we can't have cleaner air, that climate change isn't real, and that we can't have both a strong economy and healthy environment," said Leyden.
An additional reminder- the Fort Worth City Council runoff has moved their election date to the 18th as well. It had originally been set for the 11th but followed Perry's decision to place the HD-97 race on the 18th. Nice try Gov. Good Hair. There are two Democrats facing off in the city council run-off with precincts that overlap that of the HD-97 race.
Remember, Dan Barrett is a TexBlog PAC endorsed candidate and deserves your financial support!
