Maggie’s List
Announces 2018 National Endorsements Supporting 49 Women Candidates Running for
US Congress and Statewide Executive Office

Leading PAC for Fiscally
Conservative Women Works to Empower and Elect Outstanding Women to Congress and
State Executive Office to End Underrepresentation of Women in Congress and
State-Wide Offices

(Washington, DC) - Maggie’s List, a federal
political action committee (PAC) dedicated to electing fiscally conservative women
to federal office and statewide executive office, is proud to endorse 49 candidates
for United States Senate, United States House of Representatives races and state-wide
offices.

The 2018 field of endorsed candidates is based on
extensive research, evaluation and grassroots knowledge.  Special attention is given to open seat and
challenger candidates running in viable districts.  Unlike political parties, Maggie’s List takes
a stand in primary elections, when help is essential, and continues that support
into the general election cycle.

“The Maggie’s List board is incredibly proud of our
candidates that we have chosen to endorse for the 2018 mid-term election cycle.
Their experience, commitment to service, conservative values and ability to
inspire other women leaders makes them very compelling candidates in this
crucial election cycle.  Supporting and
electing these outstanding women to Congress and statewide executive office will
not only expand the conservative majority but they will also safeguard and
continue to promote our values of fiscal conservatism, less government, more
personal responsibility and a strong national security”, states Sandra B.
Mortham, National Chair for Maggie’s List and former elected Florida Secretary
of State. 

This exclusive endorsement by Maggie’s List marks a
milestone for conservative women who courageously address the need for
increased representation of women at the federal level and now at the state
level. The 2018 endorsed candidates include the following experienced women
