I have not posted in a long time. First I was digesting my whole Capitol Hill experience, processing a ton of ideas; then I was just procrastinating!
Now here we are, only four months ‘til the midterm. The master distractor has us all up in arms about children in cages, separated from mama and papa. Ouch, how low can we really go?
Imagine if women were represented in Congress equal to our numbers in society. Do you think there is any chance that it would be legal to snatch babies from their mothers’ breasts?
Our democracy is on the line, so we need to rise up in unprecedented numbers for the midterms. This means you, young people! Register to vote, register your friends to vote, register strangers to vote.
But most importantly, choose at least one candidate, maybe two or three, to support actively. Donate time, donate money, knock on doors. Our democracy is worth fighting for!
In future posts I will recommend some great female candidates. It is encouraging to have so many wonderful women taking the plunge into politics, where we need them so desperately.
