Former Lt. Governor Rebecca Kleefisch announced that she was endorsed by Right Direction Women, a national organization dedicated to electing female Republican candidates for governor. The organization recently announced that it had raised $1 million. It is led by Annie Dickerson, the founder of the Winning for Women Action Fund, and Marie Sanderson, the former policy director for the Republican Governors Association (RGA). Kleefisch is the group’s first endorsement.

“I’m incredibly proud to be the first candidate Right Direction Women endorsed. Conservative women have a crucial role to play if we want to take back control of our state and country,” said Kleefisch. “At the end of the day, I’m still a mom on a budget. I know the struggles hard-working Wisconsin families face and will be a tireless advocate for a safer, more affordable Wisconsin.”
