Women's voices aren't heard often enough. Congress should reflect the population, but with only 20 percent women in the Senate and 18 percent in the House, it just doesn't.

I believe transparency in government is key to restoring our nations faith in its elected leaders.

While we can't begin to repay the debt we owe our veterans for their brave service, we can certainly take steps to ease the physical, psychological and financial hardships they may be experiencing.

Women asking for raises should not only know their value, but they should ask with the confidence that they're helping the company to be successful.

I don't like the phrase having it all. It implies we're being greedy, like "have a second piece of pie."

When we create hope and opportunity in the lives of others, we allow love, decency and promise to triumph over cowardice and hate.

Without your voice being heard in Washington, the decisions we make aren't as good. I would urge women to consider public service. And if you want to run, give me a call. I'll help.
