WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following Dr. Annie Andrews’ decisive win in the South Carolina U.S. Senate race, EMILYs List President Jessica Mackler released the following statement:

“EMILYs List proudly congratulates Dr. Annie Andrews on her historic victory in South Carolina’s U.S. Senate race. With this win, she becomes the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate from South Carolina in her own right. This breakthrough win — the first time a Democrat has won a South Carolina U.S. Senate seat in nearly 30 years — is a testament to Annie’s leadership and the strength of her campaign. As a pediatrician and fierce advocate for South Carolina families, Annie will bring a much-needed voice to the Senate, fighting to lower healthcare costs, create good-paying jobs, and put people ahead of powerful special interests. EMILYs List is proud to have stood with Annie in this historic fight and looks forward to seeing her leadership help shape the future of the Senate.”
