Planned Parenthood of Houston and SE Texas Action Fund has announced its pick for the 2011 City of Houston Council elections. Above most endorsing organization, this is one endorsement I look to when making my decisions at the ballot box. This year is especially huge after Rick Perry’s attack on women and the poor whose access to health care and screenings is limited.
Southeast Texas Action Fund, Inc. PAC (PPHSETAF PAC) voted to endorse the following candidates for the November 8, 2011 elections:
- Annise Parker for Mayor*
- Ronald Green for Controller*
- Stephen Costello for Houston City Council At-Large Pos. 1*
- Melissa Noriega for Houston City Council At-Large Pos. 3*
- C.O. Bradford for Houston City Council At-Large Pos. 4*
- Jolanda Jones for Houston City Council At-Large Pos. 5*
- Ellen Cohen for Houston City Council District C
- Wanda Adams for Houston City Council District D*
- Ed Gonzalez for Houston City Council District H*
- James Rodriguez for Houston City Council District I*
- Larry Green for Houston City Council District K
- Ramiro Fonseca for HISD Board of Trustees District III
- Paula Harris for HISD Board of Trustees District IV
- Juliet Stipeche for HISD Board of Trustees District VIII
The Action fund also included a list of those who scored 100% on the questionnaire, but did not endorse in the race. I’m glad to see all the District J candidates scored 100%.

Next Tuesday, I will be appearing on This Week with Sylvia Garcia on UCTCRadio.com at 10AM, along with Charles Kuffner of OfftheKuff.com to discuss the City Election filings, who’s missing, who’s a surprise, and more. It should be a fun a show.
