Emily's List
Political Fundraising and Advocacy for Women CandidatesDescription
Emily's List operates as a political action committee that raises funds and provides support to elect pro-choice Democratic women to office. Amy Gardner lists her two years as political director among key credentials—alongside roles at NOW, founder of the Democratic Women's Forum, aide to Hope Schrader, and head of the Women's Leadership Coalition—to assert expertise during a tense exchange with Abbey Bartlet at the DAR reception. Toby previously cited C.J. Cregg's time there to validate her Press Secretary qualifications, impressing President Bartlet despite her other limitations.
