EMILY's List is an American political action committee (PAC) that aims to help elect Democratic female candidates in favor of abortion rights to office. It was founded by Ellen Malcolm in 1985. The group's name is an acronym for "Early Money Is Like Yeast": it makes the dough rise. The saying is a reference to a convention of political fundraising: that receiving many donations early in a race helps to attract subsequent donors and to a Fleischmann's Yeast Packet. EMILY's List bundles contributions to the campaigns of Democratic women in favor of abortion rights running in targeted races.
