What it is
Elect Democratic Women is registered with the FEC as a PAC, connected to Pro-Choice Women. In 2026 it has reported $1.9M in independent expenditures across 8 races, 94% of it helping Democrats.
A traditional PAC gives money directly to candidates, up to $5,000 per election. Donations to it are limited to $5,000 a year per person. Corporate and union PACs can only ask for money from their own executives, employees and shareholders, or members, not from the company or union treasury.
