Washington, D.C. - Maggie’s List, a federal political action committee (PAC), today announces eight new endorsements for candidates for federal and state office during the 2022 election cycle. The organization is proud to stand behind these strong, female candidates who support conservative principles.

Maggie’s List officially endorses the following candidates:

• Katie Britt for U.S. Senate (Alabama)
• Amanda Adkins for Kansas’ 3rd Congressional District
• Jaime Herrera Beutler for Washington’s 3rd Congressional District
• Vivian Childs for Georgia’s 2nd Congressional District
• Lori Chavez-DeRemer for Oregon’s 5th Congressional District
• Jeanette M. Nuñez for Lieutenant Governor of Florida
• Sara Hart Weir of Kansas State Treasurer
• Kim Owens for Arizona Corporation Commission

“We are proud to endorse this diverse group of candidates who are working hard to champion the principles of fiscal conservatism, smaller government and personal responsibility at the state and federal levels. The 2022 elections present an incredible opportunity to build upon the progress made in the 2020 election cycle, which brought us the largest class of freshman, female conservative members of congress in history. Whether at the state or federal level, we are standing behind our endorsed candidates as they fight against the radical left’s disastrous agenda for the American people,” said Maggie’s List Chairman Sandra Mortham.    

Maggie’s List has seen a dramatic rise in the number of conservative women running for office during the last several election cycles. In light of the #MeToo movement, women’s activism is more important than ever.

According to the Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP), women comprise more than 56% of all voters, but less than 27% of our representation. Maggie’s List’s mission is to equalize those numbers and empower women to take a stand and run for what they believe in.
