Kitzhaber backs Kroger for Attorney General

Gov. John Kitzhaber has endorsed law professor John Kroger for Attorney General, saying he likes the former federal prosecutor’s deep courtroom experience and his thoughtful ideas for protecting our children and the environment.”

“He's a fighter, and that makes him the right person for the job,” Kitzhaber said.

Kroger’s rival for the Democratic nomination, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Greg Macpherson, has the support of Gov. Ted Kulongoski and former Gov. Barbara Roberts.

“Gov. Kitzhaber and I have discussed the future of the state in detail, including my ideas for fighting the meth crisis, reducing child abuse, and protecting the environment,” Kroger said about the Kitzhaber endorsement. “Gov. Kitzhaber is a role model for me, and I am very honored to have his support.”
