MAJORITY COUNCIL

What is the Majority Council?

The Majority Council is a core group of EMILYs List supporters who share our dedication to electing Democratic pro-choice women and protecting reproductive freedom. The Majority Council is vital to EMILYs List’s success because building women’s political power starts with building community and ensuring that Democratic pro-choice women leaders have the tools and resources to run, win, and change the world. Majority Council members contribute $1,200 or more to EMILYs List each year to sustain the infrastructure needed to recruit, train, and elect women candidates up and down the ballot and create lasting change across the country.
