MONROE, LA - Winning For Women Action Fund (WFW AF) has endorsed Misti Cordell for Congress in Louisiana’s 5th Congressional District, citing Cordell’s business background, community leadership, and conservative political record for their support of her campaign.
“Misti is exactly the kind of candidate WFW AF was built to support, and we are thrilled to back her bid for Congress,” said WFW AF President Danielle Barrow. “She is an accomplished businesswoman, community leader, and a proven conservative who has spent her career serving her community. Louisiana’s 5th District deserves a strong voice in Congress, and Misti is ready to deliver on Day One.”
Cordell, who has also received the formal endorsement of the Republican Party of Louisiana, is a small-business owner, a two-time delegate to the Republican National Convention supporting President Donald Trump, and Chair of the Louisiana Board of Regents.
“Winning for Women Action Fund supports strong, conservative Republican Members of Congress who say what they mean and mean what they say,” said Cordell. “I look forward to joining those ranks in the Fall and providing Rural Louisiana with a strong voice in the U.S. House.”
A wife and mother of two sons, Cordell has pledged to lower taxes, secure the border, supporte Louisiana agriculture and energy, strengthening rural healthcare, defending constitutional rights, and returning education decisions to parents and local communities among her policy priorities.
