Career

In 2010, Schriock was elected president of EMILY's List, an organization dedicated to recruiting pro-choice Democratic women to run for elected office, succeeding founder Ellen Malcolm. [10] Schriock raised more than $52 million and elected a record number of women to the House and Senate in 2012.
