Women voters will choose progress, not Palin, this election cycle

By Stephanie Schriock on 07/09/2010 @ 05:25 PM

Tags: Stephanie's Take, GOP Opponents, 2010 Elections, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Reproductive Rights

To say I was unmoved by Sarah Palin's much-heralded new "Mama Grizzlies" video is an understatement. I think it's time to get the story of the 2010 elections straight -- and to call out Palin's efforts for what they are: an attempt, in the name of "feminism," to turn back the clock on women's rights and to set American families back.

Our commitment to electing pro-choice, Democratic women

By Stephanie Schriock on 06/21/2010 @ 04:33 PM

Tags: Stephanie Schriock, EMILY's List, Reproductive Rights

I enjoyed talking to Eleanor Clift last week about the future of EMILY's List -- not just electing more women, but growing our community of activists and supporters significantly -- doubling and doubling again, as I have pledged. I am confident that this growth will be fueled by our commitment to electing strongly pro-choice Democratic women.
