John,
Happy International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements and contributions of women around the world. And here at The Collective PAC, we honor and celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of Black women leaders across the country.
From Kamala Harris, the first Black woman to be elected Vice President, to Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman to sit on the Supreme Court, to Jenn McClellan, our newest congresswoman and the first Black woman to represent Virginia in Congress — we have so much to celebrate.
John, here at The Collective PAC, we are committed to uplifting Black candidates — especially Black women — and creating a government that truly represents its people. Can you chip in $10 this International Women’s Day and help us fight for more History-Makers like Kamala Harris, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Jenn McClellan?

But as we celebrate, we must also recognize how much work is left to do — which is exactly what our Co-Founder and Senior Adviser, Stefanie Brown James, told the New York Times:
Here’s the stats, John:
❌ Only 2 Black women have served in the Senate in its 233-year history.
❌ Out of 64 Black women who have run for the Senate since 2010, only 8 have secured major-party nominations.
❌ No Black woman has ever been elected governor and, out of the 22 who have run since 2010, only four have become major-party nominees
It’s HIGH TIME we elected a Black woman to the Senate, the first Black woman governor and so many more history-making Black women. Please, John, if you can, rush $10 to The Collective PAC right now to commemorate International Women’s Day!
