We are pleased to announce that Emily’s List, the organization devoted to helping progressive women run for and win office, has endorsed Penny’s campaign for Superintendent of Public Instruction. Jonathan Parker, EMILY’S List Political Director, had this to say about Penny:

“With over 30 years in education, Penny Kotterman is clearly the best choice for Superintendent of Public Instruction,” said Parker.  “As President of the Arizona Education Association for six years, she worked with Governors Janet Napolitano and Jane Hull to build the policies that are central to education in Arizona today, including AZ Learns, Arizona’s school accountability system. Penny’s accomplishments and experience in education clearly set her apart from her opponents.”

We are very excited that Penny is able to carry the EMILY’s List endorsement and represent not only the interests of children in Arizona, but help advance the cause of women in politics as well. The full press release can be found here.

The new year brings with it a new set of goals. Help us continue to build momentum for the campaign by donating today!
