Erickson writes, "I respectfully invite Salonen to offer some definitions of 'woman' that would have caused the committee to rise to their feet and burst out in applause.
Brown writes, "You cannot be pro-life and be anti-gay. You cannot preach about the sanctity of human life, while turning a blind eye to the fact that many unborn Americans will, as adults, face harsh burdens in the free exercise of their right to vote and to be a candidate."
Salonen writes, "Alvaré said her own life testifies she’s not against women in the workplace, but if we valorize everything outside the home, and completely denigrate the beauty of the care for others and the domestic sphere, we are buying our freedom on the wrong terms."
