Educators Endorse Marie! 12 Days! Yard Signs.

Marie Panec for Congress in California’s 24th District is announcing the endorsements of over fifty educators from Ventura, Santa Barbara Counties and beyond. Marie Panec is a professor of biology at Moorpark College and a member of the Oak Park Unified School District Board of Education. She also holds a doctorate in higher education.

Speaking on behalf of the educators, Dr. Alfred G. Buchanan, Professor of Microbiology at Santa Monica College, had this to say, “Marie Panec is a gifted scientist with a passion for doing what is right to make all of our lives better. She is sensitive to cultural issues and diversity, embraces and respects all. Her career as an educator is stellar.

. Another educator among the group, Dr. Charlotte Grantz Neumann said, “Dr. Panec is the only candidate who has the knowledge, experience, and expertise to initiate and guide legislation to benefit her constituents in the areas of health, education and environmental sustainability. I strongly endorse Dr. Marie Panec for election to the House of Representatives.

Dr. Neumann is Professor of Community Health Sciences and Professor of Pediatrics, UCLA School of Public Health and School of Medicine.

“ I am deeply grateful to all my colleagues in the education community for their support. Education is the key to America’s future. Clear-sighted education policy is essential to re-building our economy. Unleashing innovation through a well educated, skilled workforce is imperative for global competitiveness and American prosperity,” said Panec, Democratic candidate in the June 8th primary election, two weeks from now. Her web site is www.panec4congress.com.

The significant collection of educators joins Assembly-member Julia Brownley, former Senator Sheila Kuehl, Community leader Carmen Ramirez, the California Nurses Association, and Southern California Americans for Democratic Action, among others, as endorsers of Marie Panec's campaign for creating opportunities in Congress.
