Arizona Right to Life PAC Speaks on Arizona GOP Chairmanship

January 12, 2009 By 26 Comments

The Arizona Right to Life Political Action Committee has released the following statement (from LightHouse Blog):

The Arizona Right to Life PAC has reviewed the candidate questionnaires for both Chairman Pullen, and his opponent, Lisa James. Both candidates’ responses were found to be in-line with the pro-life legislation and pro-life agenda of Arizona Right to Life PAC. Seeing no discernible difference among the two candidates, based on the questionnaires alone, the Arizona Right to Life PAC has decided that both candidates would carry the pro-life cause with them to the Chairmanship of the Arizona Republican Party.

This should make the Life issue a non-issue with those Republicans seeking differentiation between either candidate.
