Chaired Pres. Clinton's Council on Environmental Quality

Former Vice President Al Gore waded into the Pennsylvania governor's race Wednesday, endorsing Katie McGinty in the crowded Democratic primary. McGinty worked with Gore when she served the Clinton White House as chairwoman of the Council on Environmental Quality, as well as a staffer for then-Sen. Gore and his 2000 presidential campaign.

"I strongly endorse Katie McGinty for governor," Gore said in a statement released by McGinty's campaign. "She shares my belief that we can build a better country and improve the lives of hard-working families. Katie has always viewed environmental challenges as economic opportunities. She knows how to create jobs--while protecting the environment. And she has the intellect, leadership skills, and optimistic, can-do attitude to build a better and more prosperous Pennsylvania."

Aside from a five-year stint atop the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, McGinty's political resume draws largely from her work with Gore and in the White House.
