The WISH List (Women in the Senate and House), an organization that promotes pro-choice Republican women for office, plans to honor two local men in a “Good Guys” event scheduled 5:30-7:30 p.m., Thursday, at Councilman Robert Fenwick’s home in Los Altos Hills.

The honorees are former state Assemblyman Jim Cunneen and Jim Morgan, CEO of Applied Materials and husband of former state senator Becky Morgan. Both have shown support for pro-choice and women’s issues.

“Even though our focus is to support pro-choice Republican women candidates, we felt it extremely important to honor two men who have led the pro-choice cause for many years,” said Carol Mayer Marshall, board member and vice president of The WISH List.

Morgan, of Los Altos Hills, is one of the co-founders of Planned Parenthood Mar Monte’s Teen Success program.

Cunneen, Marshall said, “really stood up for choice (as an assemblyman) not only by his voting record, but by his willingness to carry important pro-choice legislation in Sacramento.”

The WISH List, founded in 1992, fills a “huge need to give voice to the issue of choice within the Republican party,” Marshall said. “We are not advocates of abortion; but as Republicans, we strongly believe in the right of privacy.”
