2 MIKE ENG RECEIVES COVETED ENDORSEMENT OF LEADING LGBTQ ADVOCACY GROUP - EQUALITY CALIFORNIA Broad Coalition of Diverse Groups Continue to Rally in Support of Eng with Backing of Nation s Largest Statewide LGBTQ Civil Rights Organization. EL MONTE, CA Former Assemblymember and Educator Mike Eng today won an additional major endorsement in his race for the 22 nd State Senate District, this time that of Equality California. Mike Eng s record in the fight for LGBTQ rights speaks for itself, stated Rick Zbur, Executive Director of Equality California. In the California Assembly, Eng had a 100% pro-equality voting record and clearly established himself as a strong ally to the LGBTQ community with his work to prevent bullying in our schools and to improve the safety of LGBTQ students. In 2008, as a member of the Assembly, Eng came out strongly against Proposition 8 and partnered with API Equality Los Angeles to mobilize the Asian Pacific Islander communities and others to support marriage equality. We are proud to endorse Mike Eng for State Senate and have no doubt that if elected, he will continue to champion the civil rights of LGBTQ people.

3 I m proud to be supported by such a broad coalition of groundbreaking Advocacy Groups, Eng said. I ve worked with Equality California on critical LGBTQ issues ranging from Anti-Bullying legislation, equality in health care, and fighting against discriminatory homophobic initiatives among many others. I m especially honored to have earned the endorsement of such a respected and nationally recognized group such as Equality California, Eng concluded. Mike also has earned the support of dozens of unions including the State Building and Construction Trades Council of California, five law enforcement organizations including the Association for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs and PORAC, and all of the best-known District leaders including incumbent Senator Ed Hernandez, Supervisors Hilda Solis and Kathryn Barger, Congressmembers Judy Chu and Grace Napolitano and Assemblymember Ed Chau. Mike Eng previously served in the State Assembly, on the L.A. Community College District Board of Trustees, and on the Monterey Park City Council.
