Harris wins first major statewide public safety endorsement of General Election campaign

The Kamala Harris for Attorney General campaign today announced the endorsement of the California Professional Firefighters.

“As firefighters, we stand with those who stand up for public safety and California’s first responders,” said California Professional Firefighters President Lou Paulson. “Kamala Harris has met this test throughout her two decades as a prosecutor. We believe she will continue to stand with us, and with all of public safety, as Attorney General.”

“I am honored to earn the support of California’s firefighters,” said Harris. “I join all Californians in expressing gratitude for their dedication to public safety and for the many sacrifices they make, and I look forward to standing with the firefighters in this campaign.”

California Professional Firefighters is the state council for the International Association of Fire Fighters, representing more than 30,000 front line first responders in over 180 local affiliates. CPF is the first statewide public safety organization to endorse a candidate for Attorney General in the General Election. Both Harris and her Republican opponent Steve Cooley sought and interviewed for the CPF endorsement.
