"Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. EMILY's List is a left-wing political action committee (PAC) in the United States whose stated goal is to build 'a progressive America by electing Democratic pro-choice women to office.' It was founded by Ellen Malcolm in 1984. The name EMILY's List is an acronym for 'Early Money Is Like Yeast' (i.e., it raises dough). The saying is a reference to a convention of political fundraising: that receiving lots of donations early in a race is helpful in attracting other, later donors."--Back cover.
