I find it odd that theres such strong objection to what is a clear way to assure that our elections are reliable and we can do a recount if there are any questions.

Even though mother's issues are not front page news they touch us all personally, some more than others and I believe passionately in the power of grassroots engagement.

The purpose of The Motherhood Manifesto is: mothers really need to be given the ability to parent.

Most families need both parents to work. Moms need to be able to work and earn fair pay and have the flexibility in their jobs to also be primary caretakers.

When you become active in the system and communicate to your representatives, and they don't vote in accordance with your values, your responsibility is to support candidates who will.
