From Press Release:

Former Denver Mayor and Secretary of Transportation and Energy Federico Peña has endorsed Debbie Ortega in her run for one of the Denver City Council At-Large seats.  “I support Debbie for the at-large seat because of her experience and expertise with municipal government.  With a new mayor, a new cabinet, and at least five new council members coming in this summer, we need to have some experience on the city council,” Peña said. “There are going to be a lot of tough choices, and Debbie Ortega has the experience in examining all angles, and to find creative solutions.  I urge the voters of Denver to join me in bringing back Debbie Ortega to the City Council!”

“I am so proud to have Federico’s endorsement and support,” said Debbie Ortega. “It was with the Peña administration when I was on the City Council, that I was able to spearhead the creation of the Lower Downtown Historic District, redevelopment of the Central Platte Valley, and Many transportation projects.  I look forward to continuing to work on great projects in this city as we move into a new era of prosperity and success!”
