National Women's Political Caucus of Washington

The National Women’s Political Caucus of Washington recruits, trains, supports, and elects women and non-binary candidates to office across the state – and has been doing so since 1971. Our objectives are long-term, and the victories we seek are not won or lost in one election. Over the decades we have supported candidates who have won, and candidates who have lost. We have celebrated historic firsts, glass ceilings broken, and doors opened for the women, girls, and people who come next.

We celebrate Vice President Kamala Harris on her historic nomination and campaign, and for bringing joy, a focus on reproductive justice and care, and deep empathy to this election. November 5, 2024 was not our night to reach that highest seat, but we know that day will come—and we will do everything we can to make it happen, and happen soon.

Join us for our 2023 Annual Meeting!
February 4, 1:00-3:00 pm via Zoom.

“IBEW 191 is deeply committed to promoting excellence in the electrical industry and improving our members’ lives. One of the ways we do this is by partnering with mission-focused organizations like NWPC-WA and using our strengths and resources to ensure women have a seat at the table at all levels of government. As we celebrate our spirit and solidarity and honor the work done by our predecessors, we continue to build a diverse workforce fighting for everyone to have a standard of living proportionate to their skills and integrity."

"Government works best when it is representative of the people. While many assume that gender equity has been reached, the make-up of many of our elected bodies would disagree. This is why I have recruited women to run for Kenmore City Council, and why I am a supporter of the National Women's Political Caucus of Washington."

"As an NWPC-WA endorsed incumbent candidate, it’s an honor to give back to the organization that provided me and so many other amazing women with campaign expertise, financial support, and mentorship during my first race. This all-volunteer-run group works extremely hard to accomplish the mission of parity for women in government and we should all be allies in that effort!

“I can’t think of a better cause to support than helping qualified, vetted women in their election campaigns!  We need more women in government at all levels – from Fire Commissioner in a small town right on up to the Presidency.  More women in government will bring more practical solutions to the problems our communities face.”
