WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today EMILYs List’s Women Vote announced two new independent expenditure ads for Wisconsin state Senate Districts 8 and 14 in support of pro-choice champions Jodi Habush Sinykin and Sarah Keyeski. The ads highlight the dangerous priorities of Habush Sinykin and Keyeski’s opponents, who are committed to banning abortion without exceptions for rape or incest and ignoring the issues that matter most to Wisconsinites, like education and rising costs for working families.
The ads, both titled “Priorities,” will air in state Senate District 8 and state Senate District 14 on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and cable TV.
Jessica Mackler, president of EMILYs List, released the following statement on the ad buy:
“Wisconsin’s 8th and 14th state Senate Districts are two of the most critical flip opportunities for Democrats this cycle, and EMILYs List is proud to support Jodi Habush Sinykin and Sarah Keyeski in these races because we know they are the candidates to get the job done. They’ve both spent their lives advocating for others and working to make their communities better places, even while their opponents, Duey Stroebel and Joan Ballweg, and their extremist Republican colleagues vote to roll back our rights at every turn. Wisconsinites have been loud and clear: they’re ready for proud pro-choice leadership that will defend their freedoms and never back down.”

Women Vote is EMILYs List’s independent expenditure arm which works to educate and mobilize women voters on behalf of pro-choice Democratic women candidates and help turn out voters for Democrats up and down the ballot. Launched in 1995, the EMILYs List Women Vote project combines polling and research, sophisticated message testing, the latest innovations in data and technology as well as good old-fashioned voter contact to educate and mobilize millions of women voters across the country.
EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, works to elect Democratic pro-choice women up and down the ballot and across the country with a goal of fighting for our rights and our communities. Our work is centered around a fundamental vision: Run. Win. Change the World. EMILYs List has raised $850 million in service to that vision and has helped Democratic women win competitive elections by recruiting and training candidates, supporting and helping build strong campaigns, researching the issues that impact women and families, running one of the largest independent expenditure operations for Democrats, and turning out women voters to the polls. Since our founding in 1985, we have helped elect the country’s first woman as vice president, 175 women to the House, 26 to the Senate, 20 governors, and over 1,500 women to state and local office. More than 40% of the candidates EMILYs List has helped elect to Congress have been women of color. Visit www.emilyslist.orgfor more information.
