Progressive Turnout Project Endorses Lizzie Pannill Fletcher in TX-07
Candidate one of seven initial endorsements by national voter turnout organization

CHICAGO—Progressive Turnout Project today endorsed Lizzie Pannill Fletcher in Texas. The organization proudly stands alongside the candidate who will stand up for our democracy.
“As an attorney and advocate, Lizzie Pannill Fletcher has spent her career representing Houstonians and helping grow the next generation of local leadership,” said Executive Director Alex Morgan.
Today’s endorsements are part of a larger effort by Progressive Turnout Project to expand its impact in the 2018 election. The organization asks campaigns to complete an endorsement questionnaire that asks about critical voting rights issues such as the restoration of the Voting Rights Act, automatic voter registration, early voting, no-excuse absentee voting, and voter ID laws.
“Progressive Turnout Project is dedicated to expanding the electorate and getting out the vote, so it’s only natural that we support candidates who are going to help strengthen those efforts when they have a seat at the table,” said Morgan.
