Pride Fund Endorsed Candidate Justin Fairfax Defeats Gun Lobby and Anti-LGBTQ Republican, Jill Vogel
November 7, 2017 -- WASHINGTON, DC -- Pride Fund to End Gun Violence – America’s only national LGBTQ political organization focused solely on gun violence prevention – is extremely proud to congratulate its endorsed candidate, Justin Fairfax, on his incredible victory over Jill Vogel in Virginia’s Lieutenant Governor race.
“Justin Fairfax was the only candidate for Lieutenant Governor that ensured both the safety and equality of all Virginians,” said Jason Lindsay, Executive Director of Pride Fund to End Gun Violence. “Justin earned our endorsement because he supports universal background checks, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and keeping guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals. His opponent, Jill Vogel, dedicated herself to lining the pockets of gun manufacturers through her support of the gun lobby.”
