HRC Legacy PAC is designed to focus on the campaign promises that Hillary Clinton espoused during her presidential campaign in 2008. In our opinion, Secretary of State Clinton took on challenges that apply not just to Democrats or to Republicans, but to Americans. The challenges she faced (and continues to address), as well as the ways she attempted to face them, are ones which our multi-partisan staff aim to uphold.
Short-term goals for HRC Legacy PAC focus on promoting and aiding candidates that have adopted those same values that Secretary Clinton upheld during her 2008 campaign. Candidate support from HRC Legacy PAC depends not on gender, or race, or party, but on ideals and on goals for the future. We are prepared and eager to work with any candidate who is prepared to espouse those same ideals held by Hillary Clinton–human rights, civil rights, and American progress in all facets of society.
Upcoming posts will introduce the current staff, discuss important political issues, and give background information on candidates that the HRC Legacy PAC is prepared to endorse. We will answer your questions and most importantly, take your suggestions for how we can best serve our supporters and our nation.
I love this idea. Great find, Jen. We need more candidates whose political views are similar to Hillary's.

Before replying on your PAC post, I just wanted to see if the two of them had contributed to any candidate in 2008 or any other time. So, I looked up in http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/ - The founder's name I could not find. The education director has contributed $2,300 to Hillary. Also she is in California. I also saw another name on their website. Emily Abraham.Didnt find her in Fundrace either.
I Googled the names of founder and stumbled upon this! http://advocateforjusticeandrespect.club.officelive.com/default.aspx and wondered... and this lady is also in California and says that man is in MA and that part matches. Whatever that is all about. We cannot judge easily, but what is out there just is and we have to all decide what to do.
Anyway, I did NOT join their mailing list. It helps to be cautious. Just dont want to be burnt on the Internet yet again.

Sanders...good point about being cautious. It is sad to think that people might want the names and contact info for Hillary supporters to do harm to them. But the 2008 elections opened my eyes.
i emailed him and said the name emily abrams sounded so familiar and got no reply on that, just commented about hillary picking me as congressional coord in ohio
Sanders, Lynne... While I applaud your caution, you are forcing me to respond to something I had hoped to avoid in the HRC Legacy PAC fight. The allegations made on the website you found are specious and have been posted by a disgruntled, homophobic ex-employee from the time I spent living and working in Los Angeles. Her name(s) are Lucille Atillo or Lucille Prince or Lucille McElroy, she has been in jail twice, once for child neglect, another time for larceny. Her husband, Phillip Prince can be found along with her on the Rip Off Report Website. My Attorneys contacted her a few months ago when I discovered she had purchased the domain name rorymccarron.com and was using it to host that website and she had to remove it from the RoryMcCarron.com site...as far as this new one I was just recently informed of its existence. Our Education director is not from California, she happens to be from Massachusetts along with my entire national team. All were not actively politically involved before joining my staff. While vigilance is important we must also have faith in people, I know as well as most of you that 2008 was devestating. However, we must look beyond those times towards a better future.
If anybody has further questions I encourage you to ask them via e-mail at rmccarron@hrclegacypac.org or to our communications director at eabraham@hrclegacypac.org!
