About EMILY's List
EMILYs List, formerly stylized as EMILY's List, is an American political action committee (PAC) that aims to help elect Democratic female candidates in favor of abortion rights to office. It was founded by Ellen Malcolm in 1985. The group's name is a backronym for "Early Money Is Like Yeast", alluding to the way yeast makes dough rise. The saying refers to a convention of political fundraising: receiving many donations early in a race helps attract subsequent donors. EMILYs List bundles contributions to the campaigns of Democratic women in favor of abortion rights running in targeted races.
