EMILYs List recruits, trains and supports Democratic pro-choice women candidates at every level of the ballot. By helping to elect these women to office in 2025 and 2026, we’re not only building a foundation for the future, but we’re also putting strong women in charge of decisions that affect women and families every day — from the legislators who write laws to the attorneys general who defend and enforce them to the secretaries of state who ensure access to the ballot.

Rebecca Amidon is running for her first term in the Michigan State Senate.

Amidon currently teaches communications at Mid Michigan College. She has also volunteered with a number of organizations that work to make childcare more accessible and affordable.

Among Amidon’s priorities are expanding access to childcare, healthcare, and housing; protecting the outdoors; supporting unions, women, native communities, and the LGBTQ+ community; and lowering costs.

Amidon has been endorsed by the following progressive partner organizations: American Federation of Teachers - Michigan, Michigan AFL-CIO, Michigan League of Conservation Voters, meets criteria for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan, and Service Employees International Union - Michigan.

Amidon’s opponent in this race is Kim Cole. Cole espouses right-wing views on many issues and is endorsed by Right to Life of Michigan, an anti-choice organization.

Rebecca Amidon is the most progressive choice in this race.
