IL-SEN: EMILY's List backs Illinois Lt. Gov. Stratton in race to succeed Durbin

EMILY’s List endorsed Illinois Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton (D) to succeed Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) in a heated Senate race as campaign efforts mature ahead of the March primary.

The PAC, the “largest backer of Democratic pro-choice women,” decided Friday to endorse Stratton in the field that also includes Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Ill.), a former state Democratic Party chair.

“Juliana Stratton is a bold leader who’s taken on tough fights and worked to make life easier for Illinoisans,” EMILY’s List said in a Friday statement on social platform X.

“We know she’ll be a fierce advocate and stand up to Republican recklessness in Washington,” it added.
