Closing the Fundraising Gap for Women of Color
Women of color who run for office often experience a fundraising gap, where they receive significantly less money from donors on average than white women and men of all races.
Our Right to Choose is at Risk
Conservatives at the North Carolina General Assembly are fast tracking two anti-abortion bills. Legislators are attempting to undermine Roe v. Wade, which ruled that the Constitution protects a woman’s right to have an abortion without excessive government restriction just as the US Supreme Court announced it would hear another abortion ban case out of Mississippi.
Into the Unknown
We can’t pretend we’re not disappointed by the results of the election. While we wait for the results of the Presidential election and watch as every last North Carolina vote is counted, we will focus on what we do know.
Statement on Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Like us, you may have convinced yourself that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg would be with us forever. But last night, the legend left us, and we are shocked, saddened, and scared. She was a champion of gender equity for women and did more on the Court to advance and protect both reproductive rights and gender equity than perhaps any other Justice.
Statement from Leadership
Today, like so many of you, we are grieving the violent, needless end of another Black life. Too many have died and too many families have been traumatized because of racism. We are grieving that so little progress is being made in our state and nation to address a history of oppression and subjugation.
The Lead: April
We are admittedly disappointed that we won’t be able to come together later in April for our Campaign Kickoff. It is one of our favorite events where the Lillian’s List Sisterhood gets to meet and hear from our Featured Candidates all in one place. Since we are unable to host that event this month, we are bringing you a virtual Women in Politics Town Hall on April 27th at 7PM.
