Election 2014 | A note from our Director

As a Mother PAC supporter, you probably want to know how our endorsed candidates and ballot measures fared. We’re pretty pleased that of the 58 candidates we endorsed this November, 42 (possibly 43) won! That’s a 72% success rate!

This is how we do it at The Mother PAC: supporting candidates who support Oregon families. Next time, join us!
