COLORADO SPRINGS, CO –Today, EMILYs List announced that Jessica Killin, running for CO-05, is included as a targeted campaign in their Mission Majority, an aggressive initiative to expand the U.S. House battlefield, create multiple paths to victory, and flip the nation’s most competitive seats with Democratic women. 

“In 2026, Democrats’ path back to a U.S. House majority runs straight through EMILYs List women. With our Mission Majority initiative, EMILYs List is building the battlefield — recruiting, training, and working alongside the Democratic women in the districts that will flip control of the House,” said EMILYs List President Jessica Mackler. “We’ve been here before. In 2018, facing a daunting 23-seat deficit, Democratic women didn’t just compete — they delivered the majority. Now, with the future of our country on the line, EMILYs List is once again leading the charge.” 

The inclusion of Jessica Killin in the Mission Majority initiative emphasizes that this district is now a top target for flipping: Killin is running a formidable campaign, the district is trending to the left faster than any district in the country, and incumbent Jeff Crank has failed to represent the district in the way it deserves. 

Fourth-generation Coloradan and Army Veteran Jessica Killin said, “Unseating Jeff Crank is mission critical: Southern Coloradans cannot stand another term with Crank raising costs with tariffs, adding trillions to the national debt, slashing healthcare access, and failing to show up and listen to his constituents.”
