Washington, D.C. – Tonight the Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund celebrated its endorsed candidate Lynn Fitch’s victory in the election for Mississippi attorney general. Fitch defeated NARAL-backed Jennifer Collins.
“We congratulate Lynn on this important victory,” said Marilyn Musgrave, SBA List Vice President of Government Affairs. “Lynn is a staunch defender of life who worked hard to create a pro-life Republican platform as a member of the 2016 Republican National Convention platform committee. As Attorney General, Lynn will be a prolife, pro-woman leader and work to uphold laws protecting unborn children and their mothers in the Magnolia State.”
Lynn Fitch has served as state treasurer since 2011, the first Republican woman to hold this position. Previously she served as deputy executive director at the Mississippi Department of Employment Security and as counsel for the Mississippi House of Representatives Ways and Means and Local and Private Legislation Committees and was then named executive director of the Mississippi State Personnel Board by Governor Haley Barbour.
Lynn has received prestigious awards and recognition from The Mississippi Bar Association, Governing Magazine, and others. She and her family are active members in their church community, and she serves on the boards of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Goodwill Industries, and the Red Cross.
