FRC Action Endorses Jim Ryun for Congress

WASHINGTON, May 7 PRNewswire-USNewswire — Today, FRC Action, the legislative advocacy arm of the Family Research Council endorsed Jim Ryun representing the 2nd Congressional District of Kansas.

"When looking at his opponent in both the primary and the general elections, it is very clear that Jim Ryun is a true friend of the family," said David Nammo, Executive Director of FRC Action. "Additionally, he won the FRC Action True Blue Award five consecutive times while in Congress."

While in Congress, Jim Ryun co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Act, the Right to Life Act, the Human Cloning Prohibition Act, the Religious Freedom Amendment, the Make Marriage Tax Relief Permanent Act and the Death Tax Repeal Permanency Act.

In comparison, Lynn Jenkins largely supports abortion rights, except for late-term abortions, according to the Politico newspaper. She also received $5,000 from the pro-abortion group, the Republican Majority for Choice PAC; and she received $4,100 in donations and in-kind contributions from the WISH List PAC, which works to elect pro-abortion Republican women.

"You do not receive that much money from pro-abortion groups without being pro-abortion," Nammo said. "By contrast, while in Congress, Ryun sponsored legislation that protected life and the family as well as the family's pocketbook. He is the clear choice in this race and why we are pleased to endorse him for Congress."

FRC Action, a 501(c)(4) membership organization, is the legislative advocacy arm of the Family Research Council, a 501(c)(3) organization.
