UAW Endorses Sam Page for Lt. Governor

FENTON, Mo. -- At a United Auto Workers (UAW) Retirees Meeting here today, it was announced that State Representative Sam Page is Missouri UAW's endorsement for Lt. Governor.

Glenn Kage, Financial Secretary for UAW Local 136, called Page "... a true friend of the people who works to expand health care coverage for working families in the State of Missouri. He avoids partisan bickering and is respected on both sides of the aisle, but when needed, Page fights for what he believes in, like affordable health care."

"The UAW is proud to endorse Dr. Page for Lt. Governor," continued Kage. "He has the energy, the expertise and the commitment to healthcare that Missouri needs. Sam and his wife Jenny have three children and as a family man he brings his own understanding to the problems of Missouri's families. UAW members and retirees across the state will work tirelessly to ensure his election to the Lt. Governor's Office."

"The UAW has a track record," said Page, "of endorsing few candidates, but working relentlessly for those that they endorse. I'm proud to share their commitment to family values and their commitment to access for affordable healthcare for all Missourians."

Representative Sam Page was first elected to the Missouri House in 2002. Before that he was elected for two terms to the Creve Coeur City council. A Medical Doctor, he earned his degrees at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. He is married to a fellow physician. Two of their three children attend public school in the neighborhood; Jake, the youngest will in time join them.

Page seeks the Democratic nomination for Lt. Governor. The office is currently held by Peter Kinder, Republican. Kinder abandoned the office to run for governor when Blunt announced he was not seeking reelection. His party leadership told Kinder they had other plans for the office. Kinder is again running for re-election.
