FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

St. Louis, Mo. – Third Congressional District Democratic Candidate Joan
Barry has officially released her television advertisement. Barry is one
of a select few in the crowded field of ten who has the resources to
deliver her message through mass media.
Barry’s thirty-second ad reinforces her leadership in Jefferson City,
especially in sponsoring and passing key pieces of legislation including
the Women’s Health Initiative. A registered nurse, Barry’s ad also touts
her experience in the area of health care and her ability to lead efforts
to reform health care on the national level.
“I am proud of my record of dedicated service and effective leadership in
Jefferson City,” says Barry. “I’m excited to share my message with
voters.”
“This is an important step for our campaign; it solidifies our presence as
a leader in this race and is emblematic of our campaign’s growing
momentum,” says Barry.
Barry served four terms in the Missouri Legislature where she led the
expansive Children, Families, and Health Committee. Barry officially
announced her candidacy on May 25, 2003.
Isn't Barry radically pro-life?

Posted by Eddie Roth on Tue., Jul 20, 2004 at 6:51 PMBarry is radically pro-life like most of the folks in this race other than Jeff Smith, Russ and a couple of minor candidates. She is also against stem cell research. Many folks assume that because she is a woman, nurse etc. that she is pro choice. Also... many confuse her with Joan Bray, the strongly pro-choice state senator from the Clayton, University City area. Two very different people.
Posted by Lisa on Tue., Jul 20, 2004 at 8:59 PMActually, (excluding other parties) a majority (6) of the candidates are pro-choice and only 4 are pro-life. Mark Smith and Jo Ann Karll are other pro-choice Dems who are not "minor candidates."
Barry has made a smart strategic move in making health care her focus issue.
Posted by Tim on Thu., Jul 22, 2004 at 5:17 PMKarll is definatly a minor candidate. I wonder if Bram will outpoll her?
Mark Smith though is not a minor candidate-- but was pro-life prior to running I hear.
