  3. EMILY’s list is a powerful P.A.C “Supporting pro-choice Democratic women running for congress and governor”. They raise funds for women’s campaigns, supporting politicians running for congress, as well as state and local offices. With over two million members, it is one of the largest P.A.Cs in the US. It makes the dough rise!

  4. History EMILY’s list was founded in 1985 by 25 women, lead by Ellen Malcom. It has major grassroots origins, with these women initially sending their friends and colleagues asking for help electing democratic women to Congress. In 1986, they helped Barbara Mikulski of Maryland become the first Democratic woman senator. Since their founding, EMILY’s List has helped elect 10 governors, 19 senators, 101 representatives, 507 state and local officials.

  5. “We envision a world where women are equally represented at all levels of government, and achieve the highest leadership positions with our legislative and executive bodies; the influence of women office holders leads to the adoption of a host of progressive public policies to ensure that women have equal opportunities at home, in the workplace, and in the public sphere; our community of millions of engaged women and men ensure that the voice of women is heard and their power is celebrated.” -EMILY’s List website
