Colorado State Representative Amy Paschal Endorses Jessica Killin for CO-05

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – Today, Colorado State Representative Amy Paschal endorsed Jessica Killin for Colorado’s 5th Congressional District. Representative Amy Paschal represents El Paso County in the state legislature and is an engineer, activist, and mother of two. 

“Jessica Killin is the clear choice for Colorado’s 5th Congressional District. I first became impressed by Jessica from watching her campaign for CD5. She has demonstrated she can effectively assess the requirements of a completely new endeavor, make an action plan, and execute well,” said Representative Amy Paschal.

“Jessica is extremely well-qualified for Congress. She has worked in multiple environments, including the military, the private sector, and the federal government. Through her experience in public service leadership roles in Congress and as an executive for USAA, Jessica already understands how Congress works from multiple perspectives. As a legislator in my first term, I know firsthand how much that experience will serve her in being an effective Representative for District 5 right out of the gate. I am proud to endorse Jessica Killin for Congress.”
