Meet Our Leadership

Welcome

Welcome to Maggie's List, the country's leading political action committee specifically focused on electing conservative women to federal public office. When a group of thoughtful women came together in 2010 to create Maggie's List, they understood the importance of providing support to women interested in running for U.S. Congress. Since 2010, Maggie’s List has made over 100 endorsements of women running for Congress — this includes endorsing candidates in primary as well as general elections. These women support the Maggie’s List mission to promote fiscal conservatism, less government, more personal responsibility and strong national security.

Take some time to learn more about our work, our team and our endorsement process. Maggie's List is focused on empowering women to empower our nation. We hope that together, we can continue our work throughout the country and in your state.

Sandra B. Mortham, Maggie's List Chairman

“The No. 1 issue for suburban women is the economy,” said Lauren Zelt, the executive director of Maggie’s List, a group dedicated to electing conservative women to office. “The Harris campaign is working hard to make this about reproductive issues and understandably so. But at the end of the day women are the primary financial decisionmakers for their families, and they’re going to be voting with their pocket books.”

ABC News Maggie's List Feature - Efforts to elect more Republican women stalled in the 2024 primaries

This year in Washington's 3rd District, Stefanik joined Trump in backing 2022 nominee Joe Kent (who lost that race), while GOP women's groups VIEW PAC, Maggie's List, and Winning for Women all backed Leslie Lewallen, a former King County prosecutor. "I don't endorse women just because they're women," Stefanik told NBC when asked why she backed Kent. Still, Stefanik also highlighted that Republican women have been crucial in flipping battleground districts in recent cycles.
