U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn was sworn in to the Senate in January 2019. Before her election to the Senate, Senator Blackburn represented Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District. As a Congressman, she was often selected by her colleagues to lead the charge for principled conservatism.
Her congressional career was also noted for her Chairmanship of the Energy and Commerce Committee’s Subcommittee on Communications and Technology, as well as bipartisan expertise in defending songwriters’ and performers’ rights.
Senator Blackburn began her career in public service in 1995 when she was named executive director of the Tennessee Film, Entertainment, and Music Commission. In 1998, she was elected to the Tennessee State Senate.
Senator Blackburn’s public service is dedicated to promoting opportunities for women and making America a more prosperous place to live. Her leadership philosophy is based on her experiences in the private sector as a small business woman and author, as well as being a mother and grandmother.
Throughout the years, NeW women have come together to celebrate the organization that has given them a community and network of like-minded women on their college campuses and in their communities. At the annual Anniversary Celebration, NeW has hosted distinguished guests including Carly Fiorina; Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers; Alison Acosta Fraser, Managing Director of Research and Policy at the Charles Koch Institute; Genevieve Wood, Senior Advisor and Spokesperson for the Heritage Foundation; Ginni Thomas, social entrepreneur and special correspondent for The Daily Caller; and Ericka Andersen, Author of Cloud 9.

The Network of enlightened Women hosted our 2023 Leadership Retreat in Washington, DC on August 4-6. More than 75 NeW chapter leaders from across the country gathered in the nation’s capital for three days of training on how to better articulate conservative principles on campus and learn how to recruit new members, engage existing members, and grow their chapter into a positive community for women.
Cheers to 19 years of NeW! On Thursday, September 21 the Network of enlightened Women celebrated 19 years as an organization. The celebration was held at the Sonoma Restaurant and Wine Bar on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. The Anniversary party is a time for students, professional network members, and friends of NeW to come together and share how they have contributed to the mission.
We caught up with the women from NeW at the University of South Carolina. Learn about the extraordinary work these women are doing on campus from their executive board members.
