NOW PAC Endorses Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

August 19, 2020

The National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) is proud and excited to announce its endorsement of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for president and vice president of the United States of America.   

As the political arm of NOW, NOW PAC is funded solely by its grassroots membership and evaluates federal candidates on their record on the core issues of NOW: Constitutional Equality, Ending Violence Against Women, Economic Justice, LGBTQIA+ Justice, Racial Justice and Reproductive Justice. In each of these areas, the Biden/Harris ticket has shown leadership, understanding, and commitment - and uncompromising dedication to being champions for women.  

Our nation has waited centuries for this moment and our members have spent four years preparing for this moment—to reject the misogyny, racism, and corruption of the Trump presidency and bring honor, decency, justice, and feminist leadership to the White House. 

Women have been demanding this day for far too long.  

We have been waiting since Abigail Adams reminded her husband to ‘remember’ the ladies, since Sojourner said ‘ain’t I a woman,’ since Ida B. Wells strode to the front of the line of and took her rightful place in a suffragist march.  And in the 100 years since women demanded and achieved the vote, since the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts were signed in ’64 and ’65, and in the 56 years since NOW was founded.   

We are going to have a woman vice president and she will get there because we’re ready to truly win.  

Kamala Harris is the daughter of immigrants who frequently speaks of her heritage and the inspiration she draws from her Jamaican and Indian parents.  She is a Black woman who recognizes that she stands “on the shoulders” of giants who came before her, especially those like Shirley Chisholm, one of the original founders of NOW and the woman who received NOW’s first presidential endorsement. As she recently told an interviewer, “[Chisolm] understood that you just march to that podium, and you claim that podium as yours, you don’t ask anybody permission.” 

NOW has more than fifty years history of marching to podiums, speaking truth to power, not asking permission—and winning important victories.  In 2018, voters agreed with this agenda and elected the most diverse Congress in history.  Now, we can elect a woman vice president because women are mobilizing the largest feminist voting force in our history.  

Barack Obama chose Joe Biden to be his most trusted advisor, and Joe Biden is applying the same standard to his own choice.  His choice of Kamala Harris to be vice president is evidence he intends to be a feminist champion in the White House.  

The 2020 elections are an historic opportunity for women to elect a new president, to take the gavel from Mitch McConnell, and give it to someone who supports women.  We look forward to Vice President Kamala Harris presiding over a feminist Senate Majority, and a Biden/Harris Administration that defends and strengthens women’s rights, civil rights and justice for every community that is being harmed by the Trump administration today.

NOW PAC Announces First Slate of 2020 Endorsements

WOMEN WILL TAKE THE GAVEL FROM MITCH MCCONNELL  
NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR WOMEN PAC LAUNCHES  BIGGEST POLITICAL INVESTMENT IN HISTORY TO FLIP SENATE 

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) has announced its largest slate of endorsements at this stage of the election cycle, in preparation for its biggest financial investment in the organization’s history.  

NOW PAC released its initial slate of endorsements, announcing support for 136 feminist candidates in 30 states to flip the Senate and keep the House. It includes seven Senate candidates hoping to join the Senate and nine Senate incumbents, as well as 23 House candidates looking to unseat incumbents or win an open seat, plus 99 House incumbents.  The political arm of NOW — funded entirely by NOW members — will focus its efforts on funding and mobilizing its grassroots members for Senate candidates in states that can flip the Senate to a pro-woman majority.   

“It doesn’t matter who is in the White House if we don’t take the gavel from Senator Mitch McConnell and give it to someone who supports women,” said NOW PAC Chairwoman Toni Van Pelt. “For too long, an anti-women majority in the Senate has attacked our reproductive rights, our economic security, our safety and our dignity in this country.”  

NOW PAC also highlights its “rebound candidates,” who are candidates that ran in 2018 and lost, but are back in 2020. We’ve already seen early success of these candidates in their second time around, such as Marie Newman (IL-03) who toppled an anti-choice Democratic incumbent in the Illinois primary.  

Women voters and NOW members have always been a critical volunteer base to talk to women voters about the feminist issues at stake in elections from the bottom of the ballot to the top. The 2020 election results will depend on the turnout of women of all demographics and backgrounds.   

Additionally, 80 percent of the NOW PAC endorsed candidates who are challenging an incumbent or vying for an open seat are women candidates. 

Van Pelt said that the organization will soon launch its largest- ever digital organizing program to recruit members to volunteer for key target races, with a plan to unveil an Adopt a Senate Campaign program in the summer. This program was planned prior to COVID-19, but it creates a natural response to current physical distancing.  

“NOW members have been mobilizing for candidates for years -- or in many cases, decades -- knocking doors and volunteering in campaign offices,” Van Pelt said. “In this new reality, we are prepared to shift our efforts into all of the remote opportunities available to reach voters and make a huge impact in November.” 

The global pandemic has shown just how much the world relies on women’s labor in the workforce as health care workers, domestic workers, educators and service workers. It also has shown how much unpaid labor women provide as primary parents and as caretakers of family members.  

As a result, COVID-19 has laid the case for NOW’s priority legislation and electing feminists who will pass them – such as raising the minimum wage for all workers, removing the artificial timeline on the Equal Rights Amendment, equal pay, paid sick leave, paid family leave, federal abortion protections and universal health care. 

“We ask about these issues in our candidate interviews, so we know our endorsed slate will be a part of the new majority in Congress that will finally pass these priorities and build a safe, equal, and dignified United States for everyone in it,” Van Pelt said.

NOW PAC Statement on Presidential Primary

The National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) congratulates Vice President Joe Biden on becoming the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

We thank Senator Bernie Sanders, not only for his bold campaign and movement, but for the leadership in his decision to prioritize protecting Americans during COVID-19 versus extending this primary any longer.

NOW PAC calls on Vice President Biden to run a campaign that centers the base of the Democratic Party – women and especially women of color. Additionally, the organization urges him to take immediate, tangible steps to unify the diverse coalitions that earlier supported the other qualified candidates in what was a historic primary race:

  1. Immediately announce his female running mate so we can evaluate the full ticket.

  2. Adopt the following policies from former candidates that protect and champion women and align with NOW’s core issues of constitutional equality; economic justice, ending violence against women, LGBTQIA+ equality, racial justice and reproductive health and justice:

The global pandemic has made it clearer than ever that women are specifically impacted when these policies are not in place. But these plans are also only possible if we work to flip the Senate to a pro-woman majority and keep control of the House. Senator Mitch McConnell cannot hold the Senate gavel for another term, allowing him to push his extremist, anti-women agenda on all Americans.

NOW PAC looks forward to working with the Biden campaign to use the General Election to paint a picture for America of what could be achieved when a feminist is in the White House, working with a feminist majority in the House and Senate.

NOW PAC Statement on Warren Suspending Campaign

The National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) thanks Senator Elizabeth Warren for her historic campaign and calls on the remaining candidates to take a lesson from her on how to govern and champion issues important to voters.

NOW PAC endorsed Warren based on her commitment to NOW's core issues, but also because she exhibits other critical presidential qualities that lacked coverage in the media and debates.

"Yes, Warren had the best policies," said NOW PAC Chairwoman Toni Van Pelt. "But Warren also had the best judgment, had the best constituency outreach, hired the best people, and evolved her campaign based on feedback from those most affected by her policies."

Unfortunately, the media and debates never gave voters information on how the candidates' records and plans directly impacted women – especially women of color. NOW PAC has called out the fact that debate questions and media coverage frame issues in the form of questions like "How are you the best candidate to pass gun control reforms?" This allows candidates to pivot to electability – an inherently racist and sexist concept when this country has elected 43 white presidents, one black president, and zero women.

With no viable women or non-white candidates left, it is imperative that the remaining candidates do better to intentionally discuss campaign issues with a gender and racial lens that they personally do not possess.

"They need to take a lesson from Warren's campaign," Van Pelt said. "She listened to constituencies she was not a part of, took their criticism seriously without being defensive, changed her policies, and analyzed every policy with multiple lenses: race, gender, class, immigration status, disability, sexual orientation, and gender identity.”

NOW PAC also calls on media outlets covering the election to re-evaluate how they cover the remaining candidates and the General Election. Our #AskThemMore campaign at nowpac.org/ask-them-more has 12 questions that campaigns can start talking about, debate moderators can start asking and the media can start writing stories about.

NOW PAC has not made any decisions about endorsing another presidential candidate but has already endorsed more than 100 feminist Senate and House candidates. See the full list at nowpac.org/federal2020.

NOW PAC Endorses Warren for President

NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR WOMEN PAC ENDORSES ELIZABETH WARREN FOR PRESIDENT

For media inquiries, email press@now.org or call (202) 570-4745.

The National Organization for Women Political Action Committee (NOW PAC) is proud to endorse Senator Elizabeth Warren as the 46th President of the United States.

NOW PAC is the political arm of NOW, the largest grassroots feminist organization in the country.

The PAC evaluates federal candidates on their record and uncompromising dedication to the core issues of NOW: Constitutional Equality, Ending Violence Against Women, Economic Justice, LGBTQIA+ Justice, Racial Justice, and Reproductive Justice.

“Senator Warren has the most comprehensive, intersectional plans to tackle the issues important to NOW,” said NOW PAC Chairwoman Toni Van Pelt. “Her campaign, her staff and her coalition of support shows her Administration will finally execute and pass these policies that NOW has worked toward for decades.”

As NOW PAC has repeatedly called out, most candidates, debate moderators and the media only discuss the specific issues facing women through the lens of families and children and specific topics like reproductive health or pay equity.

“Warren understands that women have particular experiences with the economy, immigration, gun violence and climate change — and her policies and campaign reflect this,” Van Pelt said. “And in particular, her campaign has repeatedly linked racial equity and gender equity to every issue.”

Senator Warren’s record is clear:

CONSTITUTIONAL EQUALITY

ENDING VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

ECONOMIC JUSTICE

LGBTQIA+ RIGHTS

  • Cosponsor of the Equality Act, which will prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation, and for other purposes.

  • Cosponsor of the Real Education for Healthy Youth Act, which would require more LGBTQIA+ inclusive sex education in schools.

  • Introduced a campaign plan for Securing LGBTQIA+ Rights and Equality, which addresses a variety of issues facing the LGBTQIA+ community, including discriminatory religious exemptions, housing discrimination, and supporting trans youth.

RACIAL JUSTICE

REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS AND JUSTICE

NOW PAC has consistently praised the historical weight of the 2020 race, where multiple women have stood on debate stages together and two women candidates have won delegates. NOW‘s state and local chapters have worked closely with former presidential candidates Senator Amy Klobuchar, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and Senator Kamala Harris.
