Our Leadership Team consists of more than 50 women at the top of this field. A diverse, bipartisan coalition of women leaders, they form the very core of our program; strategizing and building the relationships needed to successfully support and inspire women candidates. We are proud of the diversity of experiences, backgrounds, and opinions on this Leadership Team. Members may disagree on all things but one: The importance of propelling women into high-level political office. With a Congressional approval rating of 13%, we believe we need this kind of collaboration now more than ever.
Although most members are affiliated with groups working in this field, they participate as individuals, not as representatives of any organization. Their presence in Political Parity does not imply endorsement or participation by any specific organization.
