Crystal Quade secures endorsement from state LGBTQ+ advocacy group in gubernatorial bid

Crystal Quade has earned another influential endorsement in her 2024 bid for Missouri governor.

The political action committee of Missouri’s state LGBTQ+ advocacy organization, PROMO, announced its endorsement of the Springfield legislator during a Thursday fundraising event at Q Enoteca. PROMO PAC endorses candidates who demonstrate a track record of supporting equal rights and legal protections for LGBTQ+ Missourians.

“In the last year alone, we’ve seen every single branch of our state government attack LGBTQ+ Missourians by not only hindering their ability to thrive, but debating their very existence,” said Shira Berkowtiz, Senior Director of Public Policy and Advocacy. “We’re ready for a governor who intentionally protects and serves all Missourians — ­not harms, invalidates, or attacks their lives.”

Quade, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for Missouri governor, currently represents District 132 in the Missouri House of Representatives. If elected, she would be the first woman to serve as governor in Missouri history.
