Jessica Taylor endorsed by group dedicated to electing conservative women

Prattville businesswoman Jessica Taylor, a candidate for Alabama’s 2nd congressional district, was endorsed Monday by the Value in Electing Women Political Action Committee (VIEW PAC).

According to the organization’s website, View PAC “was founded in 1997 by female Republican Members of Congress and professional women to help elect qualified, viable Republican women to Congress.”

The group gave $460,000 directly to Republican women candidates in the 2018 cycle.

“Jessica is not only an impressive businesswoman and an active member of her community, she is also the type of conservative leader we need in DC to change the way things are done. After getting to know Jessica, I’m certain that her experience and thoughtful philosophy are exactly what we need to take on the socialist radicals in Congress,” said Julie Conway, VIEW PAC’s executive director.

Jessica Taylor responded to news of the announcement, saying, “VIEW PAC’s endorsement is further proof that our conservative message is gaining momentum.”

She added, “I am honored to have VIEW PAC’s support and trust to take on this important mission for our country’s future.”

Other candidates to replace retiring Rep. Martha Roby (R-Montgomery) are former Alabama Attorney General Troy King, former State Representative Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) and Dothan businessman Jeff Coleman.
