FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, endorsed Stefany Shaheen for New Hampshire’s 1st Congressional District. EMILYs List President Jessica Mackler released the following statement:

“Stefany Shaheen is a fighter who understands exactly what Granite State families are up against. As a mom who spent years fighting insurance companies who deny families the care they need, Stefany knows firsthand that access to affordable healthcare makes all the difference. Now, she’s ready to take that fight to Congress and take on Donald Trump and Republicans who are driving up costs and putting billionaires ahead of working families. Stefany will fight to lower costs, protect healthcare, and hold this administration accountable, and EMILYs List is proud to endorse her in this critical race.”

Stefany Shaheen is an entrepreneur, business leader, and lifelong advocate for improving health care, from co-founding a small business that helps people access health resources to writing a bestselling book about her family’s experience with diabetes. She also served on the Portsmouth City Council and chaired her local Police Commission. Now, Stefany is running for NH-01 to take on Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress and fight for New Hampshire families.
