Carole Kazmierski, president of DAWN's List, announced today that the organization has endorsed Kirsten Running-Marquardt in the race to elect a new state representative in Iowa House District 33. The special election to replace Dick Taylor, the district's retiring representative, will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 24.

"Kirsten Running-Marquardt is a dedicated worker, a proven leader and knows how to take on hard issues," Kazmierski said. "She will provide the representation that Cedar Rapids needs during these hard economic times."

Kirsten Running-Marquardt was born and raised in Cedar Rapids. She worked as Director of Iowans for Health Care and later became District Representative for U.S. Representative Dave Loebsack's in his Linn county office. Running-Marquardt has set "smart flood recovery" as a priority in her campaign. She supports buyouts for homeowners in her district and favors hiring Iowans to perform flood recovery work. She is a supporter of the prevailing wage in labor contracts. Running-Marquardt is pro-choice and supports the interests of working Iowans. This is her first run for public office.

Kazmierski and DAWN want supporters to know that the best way to volunteer for the campaign is to visit Running-Marquardt's campaign Web site.
