“We are proud to support Susan Collins’ campaign for the U.S. Senate,” said Geri Martin, BPW/Fort Kent President and past BPW/ME president. “BPW/PAC recognizes her commitment to equity for all women in the workplace. Sen.Collins has demonstrated her support for pay equity, work-life effectiveness and equal rights, and we are confident that when she is re-elected to the U.S. Congress, workingwomen and their families from Maine and across the nation will have a powerful advocate in Susan Collins.”
“Susan Collins is clearly the top pick for women in the workplace and has shown that she supports BPW/USA’s legislative priorities,” added Martin.
Since 1979, Business and Professional Women Political Action Committee (BPW/PAC) has worked to elect women and pro-women candidates who support BPW/USA’s legislative platform. Through endorsements, contributions and education, BPW/PAC supports federal candidates who will be strong advocates for equity for all women in the workplace.
BPW/PAC is a nonpartisan political action committee funded solely through the voluntary contributions of Business and Professional Women/USA members.
