John,

If you've been reading our emails, then you know that right now EMILYs List is focused on the work ahead. But that doesn't mean we're not still thinking deeply about the 2024 election results and what they mean for this community.

And trust me, I know how disheartening those results were. Kamala Harris, a candidate we've championed for decades, lost her historic race for the presidency. Republicans took back the Senate. Democrats fell just a few seats short of clinching the House majority.

But we cannot let those results detract from our wins, John. Because Democratic pro-choice women had some momentous victories this year, and those wins will be CRITICAL in protecting our rights and our democracy. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of this community, we helped Sens. Tammy Baldwin (WI) and Jacky Rosen (NV), as well as Sen.-elect Elissa Slotkin (MI), win three of the most competitive Senate races of the cycle. We helped 33 House women secure their seats, including Rep. Emilia Sykes (OH-13) and Rep.-elect Laura Gillen (NY-04), who were running in incredibly tough toss-up districts. Thanks to them, we're only a few seats shy of a majority in both chambers.

Why were these victories so important, even with some tough losses? Because the only way to stop Donald Trump is to check his political power by taking back Democratic control wherever we can. And because of the victories of EMILYs List women in 2024, we are now in a position to do just that — as soon as 2026. That's what your support did, and will continue to do.

This community was built to advance Democratic women's political power. And no single election result, no matter how devastating, will come between EMILYs List and our mission.

Thank you for being in this fight with us.

Jessica Mackler
President, EMILYs List
