interested in the actual, real lives of women in our country. so, we decided we had to make sure that in this party, our party, women's voices would always be heard, that in this party, our party, the problems that keep women and their families up at night would always be front and center. and we wanted to bring more women into the electoral process as voters and advocates, as organizers, fund-raisers, candidates and elected officials, because we know women are half the country, indeed, slightly more, half the planet, and more than half the democratic party. so, if we want to make sure that women and families are better represented in politics, we need to get more of us involved in politics at every level. as we like to say, when women lead, families succeed.
