Women of all ages have contributed to the successes of pro-choice women in politics. At the Annual Luncheon, we come together to Share the Torch with younger generations because while we have made great strides, there is still a need for more women in politics who will support a pro-woman agenda.

BREAKING NEWS: SENATOR TARRYL CLARK RECEIVES EMILY'S LIST ENDORSEMENT!
When womenwinning endorsed Tarryl Clark for Congress, we knew we were getting behind a candidate who had what it takes to win this election and deliver real results for Minnesota's women and families.
In just a few months, Tarryl has put together an incredible campaign that is poised to win -- and in January, with your support, her campaign got a big boost.
“EMILY’s List is proud to support Tarryl Clark in her campaign for U.S. Congress,” said Ellen R. Malcolm, President of EMILY’s List. “As a State Senator, Tarryl has spearheaded major bipartisan initiatives on a number of issues, including education, veterans’ affairs, domestic violence, consumer protection, and affordable housing. Her strong reputation of getting things done for Minnesota families is what sets her apart from her opponents and has enabled her to be such a powerful voice for her constituents.”
“Tarryl is a proven vote getter in what is traditionally rough territory for Democrats,” continued Malcolm. “Her candidacy puts this district in play and gives Democrats the best shot at picking up this swing-seat in November.”
Tarryl has now earned the support of womenwinning, EMILY's List, and the Women's Campaign Forum. These endorsements bring together the resources and efforts of women across Minnesota and across the nation to ensure Tarryl wins this critical election.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US TO SUPPORT
SENATOR TARRYL CLARK FOR CONGRESS
womenwinning Federal PAC unanimously voted to support Senator Clark for the 6th congressional district. By the end of the first campaign finance reporting deadline, we were proud to support her campaign with a $10,000 check- important early money that will help Tarryl bring her message to the sixth congressional district and across the state of Minnesota.
In her remarks at our fundraising event, Senator Clark reminded us of how important early money will be in the 6th district. While Michele Bachmann has been spending her time appearing on national talk shows and criss-crossing the country to speak at conservative conventions, Tarryl has been working hard in the State Senate championing issues like investing in infrastructure; opportunities to expand our transportation options; and opportunities to help keep seniors and families in their homes during tough economic times.
If you weren't able to make it to the womenwinning event please make your important contribution to Tarryl's Campaign here. Thank you for your support.

WOMENWINNING IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE ENDORSEMENT OFSPEAKER MARGARET ANDERSON KELLIHER FOR GOVERNOR
womenwinning: Minnesota Women’s Campaign Fund State PAC has endorsed Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher in her race for Governor of Minnesota.
Speaker Anderson Kelliher says this endorsement is an important step to earning the DFL nomination and winning the general election in 2010.
Over the last quarter century, the percentage of women representing the citizens of Minnesota has increased from 8 percent to 28 percent of the total offices on the state level. During the same period of time the number of women elected to the US Congress has nearly quadrupled from 23 to 87. But our work is not done. We have never elected a women as governor in the state of Minnesota.
“The womenwinning committee was very impressed with Margaret’s commitment to the issues most important to Minnesotans during these difficult economic times. We believe Margaret to be the best candidate for the job and look forward to working with her campaign,” said womenwinning Board chair, Courtney Cushing Kiernat.
