—
Each candidate running for office as a challenger or in an open seat, will need to complete the Endorsement Questionnaire which is available here or by contacting the National office.
Any incumbent who has been endorsed by NWPC in the past, will need to sign a renewal letter, which will be sent to them by the National office.
Each woman running as a challenger or in an open seat (first exposure to NWPC) will be vetted by the state (if a state caucus) and the National Political Planning and Action Committee (PPAC).
Recommendation is made by the state to the PPAC; the PPAC makes recommendations to the National Board of Directors on the endorsement.
We encourage all caucuses to reach out to us at the National office about all pro-choice women running in the state, so we are sure to include everyone in our screening.
For more information, contact Kate McDonald, NWPC Programs Director at kate@nwpc.org.
