We Are Virginia's List

Our Mission is Clear

Virginia's List (formerly Women Leaders of Virginia) is the Commonwealth's leading political action committee supporting pro-choice Democratic women up and down the ballot in non-federal races. Our mission continues to expand as we begin helping candidates run for local office in the Commonwealth.


We formed in 2015 and immediately started raising critical resources to directly support women candidates in Virginia Senate and House of Delegates races across the Commonwealth. Virginia's List raised tens of thousands of dollars for candidates in our first year.

​

Virginia's List envisions a Commonwealth where women have an equal voice at the decision-making tables wherever power presides.

Working for a New Virginia

We started by focusing on the critical 2017 races in Virginia, and it paid off. We changed the face of the Democratic Caucus and kicked off a nationwide blue wave. In 2019, we flipped BOTH the General Assembly chambers and made it possible for strong, Democratic women to take leadership roles.

 

Despite our best efforts, 2021 interrupted our successes. However, we elected 25 Democratic women to the House of Delegates.

​

In 2023, we regained control of the House of Delegates and maintained our pro-choice majority in the Senate. Virginia remains the only state in the South where abortion access is not severely restricted.

 

Our next fight will be to elect abortion rights advocates at all levels of government who will work toward a Constitutional Amendment to enshrine the protections for abortion in our state constitution. Our work--with your support--is the only way we can continue to gain traction in the reproductive freedom and justice movement.
