Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley was in the EMILY's List office today to receive big news: she's been endorsed by EMILY's List for the U.S. Senate.

Coakley's election will be a whirlwind, with only three months from now until election day. Many of Coakley's potential opponents are House incumbents who have federal cash on hand -- it will be up to us to make sure that Coakley has the resources she needs to compete and win. Fortunately, Coakley has earned a remarkable reputation as a dedicated public servant to the people of Massachusetts and she's already hit the ground running.

Here are some words from EMILY's List President Ellen R. Malcolm about the endorsement, along with photos from today:

“EMILY’s List is proud to endorse Martha Coakley in the special election for the Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat. We met with Martha today to tell her that EMILY’s List and our 100,000 members in Massachusetts and across the country will be standing with her as she campaigns over the coming months. This is the moment that the women of Massachusetts have been waiting for -- the opportunity to elect their first woman to serve in the United States Senate.”
