Verona, PA - Former Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) announced today that Iowa's Republican National Committeewoman and the former President of Iowa Right to Life Kim Lehman has endorsed his candidacy for President of the United States.
 
Kim Lehman is a widely respected and well-known conservative leader in the Iowa.  In addition to serving as Iowa's Republican National Committeewoman, Lehman is the Development Director for the John Paul II Stem Cell Institute, a bio-ethically driven stem cell research organization.  Previously, Lehman served as President of Iowa Right to Life.
 
"I am blessed to be able to endorse a candidate like Rick Santorum for President," said Kim Lehman.  "Rick Santorum's record of accomplishment proves that he is more than someone who says that he believes in conservative principals, he is someone willing to fight for them - all of them, including the seriously daunting social and economic issues.  Rick won't apologize for America being great, and he will defend Israel.  He didn't shy away from taking on the partial birth abortion ban or welfare reform and he's certainly not going to shy away from getting this country back on track.   Rick Santorum is grounded and able to lead on the national stage.  I look forward to working with him and his campaign in preparation for the caucus in February."
 
"I am honored to have Kim's endorsement," said Senator Santorum.  "Kim's passion and reputation of standing tall for conservative principles reaches far beyond the borders of Iowa.  I am excited about the opportunity to formally work with Kim to spread our message of freedom and faith in the American people."
