Arlington, TX — Maggie’s List, a federal political action committee (PAC) dedicated to electing fiscally conservative women to federal office and statewide executive office, today announced their endorsement of Susan Wright in the special election runoff for Texas' 6th Congressional District.
"Maggie’s List exists to support strong conservative female leaders which is why we are proud to endorse Susan Wright for Texas’ 6th district," said Lisa Fortson, Texas State Chair of Maggie's List. "As a widow myself, I can really appreciate the grit, grace and resilience Susan has shown by stepping up to run for Congress in the face of an overwhelming tragedy. Susan will be a fierce advocate for the conservative values we share, and she’ll be a great addition to the historic class of conservative women that are serving in the 117th Congress."
“I’m truly honored to earn the support of the conservative women leaders at Maggie’s List," said Susan Wright. "They are on the frontlines, working hard to get quality female conservative candidates elected all across the country, and I’m excited to fight alongside this incredible organization to retake the House in the 2022 cycle."
In addition to Maggie's List, Susan has been endorsed by President Donald J. Trump, Club for Growth, Susan B. Anthony List, Young Conservatives of Texas, and Congress Members Andy Biggs, Anthony Garbarino, Chip Roy, Elise Stefanik, Jodey Arrington, Kay Granger, Lance Gooden, Louie Gohmert, Pat Fallon, and Troy Nehls.
Susan has also garnered the support of many local officials, including Arlington Mayor Jeff Williams, Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price, Tarrant County Sheriff Bill Waybourn, Tarrant County GOP Chair Rick Barnes, State Representatives David Cook, Matt Krause, Stephanie Klick, and Tony Tinderholt, dozens of precinct chairs, and hundreds of local activists.
