Elizabeth Bartlet-Westin

steadfast grounded loyal

Elizabeth 'Liz' Bartlet-Westin anchors the eldest daughter's steadiness within President Josiah Bartlet and Abbey Bartlet's intimate family circle, her punctual returns to the family farm weaving restorative escapes amid Oval Office tempests. As daughters Ellie and Zoey converge under parental watch, Liz embodies unseen familial glue binding against political storms. Now ensnared in Special Prosecutor Clem Rollins' grand jury subpoenas—compelled alongside parents, sisters, and top aides for testimony and documents in the MS probe—her deepened entanglement exposes the presidency's private sphere to legal siege, testing the resilience of Bartlet kinship under federal scrutiny.
