Protect reproductive choice

Respect for all Americans--Elaine Marshall has long been an advocate for women's health and women's rights. Elaine knows it is essential that women are able to make informed decisions about their own health and reproductive options. As a U.S. Senator, Elaine will work to reduce rates of unintended pregnancy, improve women's access to health care, end violence against women, and protect reproductive choice.

Endorsed by EMILY's list for pro-choice Democratic women.

Marshall signed 2010 Congressional endorsement list

EMILY's List looks for viable political opportunities and recruits strong pro-choice Democratic women candidates to run.
We tell our community of members about these women, and ask them to give directly to the campaigns.
We provide extensive training for candidates and staff so they can make the most of limited resources.
We conduct in-depth, ongoing research into the minds and moods of women voters, a critical bloc for Democrats.
Finally, our WOMEN VOTE! project reaches out to women voters to go to the polls and cast their ballots for progressive Democrats--because When Women Vote, Women Win!
EMILY's List's motto is "win today and build for tomorrow."

Our immediate focus is to protect our gains from 2008 and make sure President Obama has strong Democratic majorities in Congress. Its name? EMILY's List--an acronym for "Early Money Is Like Yeast" (because it makes the dough--campaign funds--rise). Source: 2010 Congressional endorsement list 2010-EML on Sep 1, 2010
