Remembering Geraldine Ferraro
Geraldine Ferraro was a huge part of EMILY’s List from the beginning — from before the beginning, when our founders helped work to secure her nomination. She shared a house with Barbara Mikulski, the first Democratic woman elected to the Senate in her own right, and Barbara Kennelly, the first woman Chief Majority Whip — what a band of sisters.

Rest in peace, Geraldine Ferraro, and may God’s love be with you.
And may God have mercy on your soul.
As a limousine driver, I drove Geraldine Ferraro once back in 2000.
My great regret is that she never repudiated her support for the killing of unborn children and never came to value the lives of all members of the human family.
What a sad legacy in terms of her record or lack of in protecting the unborn.
