Democratic Women's Caucus

What Democratic Women's Caucus does

The Democratic Women's Caucus (DWC) is a Congressional caucus within the U.S. House of Representatives composed of all Democratic women members, currently numbering 96. The caucus is led by Chair Teresa Leger Fernández (NM-03), with Vice Chairs Hillary Scholten (MI-03) and Emilia Sykes (OH-13), a DWC Whip, Policy Task Force Co-Chairs (Deborah Ross and Sydney Kamlager-Dove), and additional task force chairs covering reproductive health care, servicewomen and women veterans, member services, and Equality Caucus liaison functions. Its organizational mission centers on three pillars articulated in the Better Future Agenda: Economic Opportunity, Healthcare and Reproductive Freedom, and Safety and Freedom From Violence.

The caucus operates through legislative advocacy, press releases, letters to the executive branch, bipartisan partnerships, and community organizing rather than through any technology product or commercial offering. Its core "outputs" are legislative packages, oversight correspondence, and coordinated public positioning. There is no proprietary technology stack, no products or services for sale, no pricing model, and no revenue model; it is a governmental entity operating under the U.S. House of Representatives rather than a commercial enterprise. Operational reach is domestic (all 50 states plus the District of Columbia), and engagement is delivered via a multi-channel communications footprint including the official house.gov website, email newsletter, Facebook, X, Bluesky, Instagram, YouTube, and a media center with press releases. The most significant recent organizational action is a May 2026 bipartisan partnership with the Republican Women's Caucus to combat workplace sexual misconduct in Congress, backed by Speaker Mike Johnson and Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Direct peers

• Congressional Hispanic Caucus: Identity-based House caucus with comparable structure — Chair, Vice Chairs, task forces, and policy slates — focused on Hispanic Americans. Like the DWC, it operates as both a legislative coordination body and an external advocacy brand.
• Republican Women's Caucus: Direct peer within the U.S. House of Representatives; the GOP counterpart to the DWC representing Republican women members. The two caucuses already have a formal bipartisan partnership (announced May 2026) on combating workplace sexual misconduct, making them structurally and functionally equivalent.
• Congressional Black Caucus: The preeminent identity-based Congressional caucus in the House, with a similar structure of formal membership, leadership bench, task forces, and policy agendas. It is the closest analogue in organizational form and advocacy function to the DWC, operating within the same House ecosystem.
• Equality Caucus (LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus): Congressional caucus advocating for LGBTQ+ rights. It is one of the DWC's listed coalition partners (the DWC maintains an Equality Caucus Liaison) and operates with a similar identity-caucus structure focused on legislative advocacy and constituent mobilization.

Emerging players

• Congressional Caucus for the Equal Rights Amendment: Bipartisan House caucus focused specifically on ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment. It overlaps directly with the DWC's gender-equality agenda but at narrower scope, making it an adjacent rather than substitute entity.

Broad incumbents

• Congressional Progressive Caucus: One of the largest ideological caucuses in the House, with a broader economic and social agenda than the DWC. Many DWC members overlap with this caucus, and it functions as an upstream coalition that the DWC frequently intersects with on votes and messaging.
• Problem Solvers Caucus: Bipartisan House caucus focused on governance and cross-aisle deal-making. It represents a comparable model to the DWC's new bipartisan misconduct initiative, but at a broader institutional rather than identity-based level.

Others

• New Democrat Coalition: Centrist Democratic caucus in the House organized around economic and innovation policy. Shares significant membership overlap with the DWC and operates as an adjacent coalition vehicle that influences which DWC priorities advance in the broader Democratic caucus.
• National Women's Law Center: Leading external advocacy organization pursuing many of the same policy goals as the DWC (reproductive rights, economic justice, gender equity). It functions as an ecosystem partner rather than a Hill peer, but is the most relevant external analogue for evaluating the DWC's policy agenda.
• EMILY's List: Political organization dedicated to electing pro-choice Democratic women to office. It is closely tied to the DWC's pipeline and agenda and is the most relevant external peer for the DWC's candidate-recruitment and electoral function.
