Where do you see Women Winning in the next 40 years?
41st Annual Luncheon
Join us at the Depot in Minneapolis on June 12th from 11 am to 1 pm to celebrate 40 years of Women Winning! Our theme this year is " 40 YEARS: The Past, Present, and Future of Women Winning, [[link removed]] " highlighting our incredible history of supporting and electing pro-choice women in Minnesota.

We're thrilled to have two phenomenal speakers who embody this theme and the work that Women Winning has done over the past four decades. Loretta Ross and Lizz Winstead embody reproductive rights and Women Winning’s mission. Learn more about the speakers at our 41st Annual Luncheon event page.

From humble beginnings with 25 bipartisan women in a living room, Women Winning has grown to unite over 19,000 people in the fight to recruit, train, and elect pro-choice women to all levels of public office. As we enter Women Winning's 41st year, we're celebrating where we've been, where we are, and where we're heading.

Let's continue fighting for candidates who care about body autonomy and ensuring access to safe, legal abortion healthcare for generations to come. Don't miss this opportunity to be a part of the future impacts on reproductive justice for the next 40 years!

Today's News!
FDA and Opill
We are thrilled to share that after years of tireless advocacy, a joint FDA advisory committee has unanimously voted in favor of making a progestin-only birth control pill [[link removed]] available over-the-counter! This monumental achievement is a major win for reproductive justice and comes after nearly two decades of dedicated work from reproductive health, rights, and justice organizations. With over 60 years of scientific evidence showing that birth control pills are a safe and appropriate choice for OTC use, this decision marks a critical step forward in expanding access to reproductive care and advancing the fight for reproductive rights.
