Dear NWPC members and friends:
In case you missed it or would like to see again, our 12/12/22 post-election candidate round table is available HERE.
Among the participants are newly elected Senator Angelique Ashby and Assembly Member Stephanie Nguyen, the three women now serving on Sacramento's female-majority City Council, several school board candidates, re-elected SMUD Director Rosanna Herber, and Jaclyn Moreno who came within 400 votes of winning election to the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors.
All of our endorsed candidates were asked three questions:
Their responses ranged from enlightening and poignant to disturbing and enraging as candidates discussed everything from the sisterhood that embraced them to death threats and personal attacks.
As we prepare for the 2024 election cycle, I urge those of you who aren't yet NWPC members to join via the membership page. And for those of you who are members, please renew. (Just remember to log-in first on our home page.)
NWPC's mission is to recruit, train and elect pro-choice women running for local, state and national offices. I look forward to working with you all to meet that challenge.
In solidarity,
Lauren Hammond, President
NWPC Sacramento
PS: All of our endorsed candidates said that raising money was one of their biggest challenges. This past year, we were able to contribute more than $15,000 to their efforts which nearly depleted our campaign funds. If you'd like to help replenish our PAC, you can donate HERE. But please don't give till it hurts - give till it feels good!
