Welcome from the DWC

The Democratic Women’s Caucus is a powerful coalition that will make sure women’s voices are heard in the halls of power. 

Over and over again women have made clear the power of their voices and their votes: electing the first woman Vice President, a record number of women in Congress, and protecting reproductive rights in state and local elections across the country. The Democratic Women’s Caucus won’t let anyone forget that. With a historic 94 members, we are fighting for the rights and opportunities that all women deserve—no matter what state they live in.  

Led by our Chair Congresswoman Teresa Leger Fernández and Vice Chairs Congresswomen Hillary Scholten and Emilia Sykes, the Democratic Women’s Caucus represents women from all corners of the country. From their House committees to their communities, our members are leading the fight to build an economy that works for women, deliver affordable health care—including reproductive health care—prevent violence against women, ensure a quality education for women, and finally guarantee gender equality in our Constitution.

We are committed to working with our House and Senate colleagues, the Biden Administration, state and local governments, and the private sector to deliver for women. Our message to women is simple: you can count on the Democratic Women’s Caucus to fight for all girls and women in our country and around the world.
