The Susan B. Anthony List endorsed Rep. Marsha Blackburn for Senate on Tuesday.
“Marsha Blackburn is a tireless pro-life champion who never hesitates to go on offense on behalf of unborn children and their mothers,” said former U.S. Rep. Marilyn Musgrave, SBA List’s Vice President of Government Affairs, in a statement.
Ms. Blackburn, Tennessee Republican, said she was “grateful” for the endorsement and would always be a pro-life advocate.
“I am unapologetically 100 percent pro-life, and I’m grateful for the Susan B. Anthony List’s support,” Ms. Blackburn said. “As I always have, I will continue to stand up for unborn children and their mothers.”
She is currently running for the open U.S. Senate seat in her state vacated by Bob Corker, who announced his plans to retire last year.
The Susan B. Anthony List and their affiliated political action committee Women Speak Out said they spent more than $18 million in the 2016 cycle to support pro-life candidates and defeat those who advocate for abortion rights.
