At this moment, I can’t help but think back to 2016.
In 2016, we had one of the most qualified candidates in history on the ballot. But instead of electing our first woman president, we elected a man who threatened the very fabric of our nation. This resulted in a massive rollback of our rights, including the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Now, we have to ask ourselves, “Did we do everything we could to make sure we won that election?”
We CANNOT repeat history.
This is the moment that we need all hands on deck to defeat extremism in all its forms, take back the House, protect the Senate, and elect our first Black and South Asian woman president. We cannot take this moment for granted.
As a Cuyahoga County Council member and Chairwoman of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, Shontel Brown has spent the last decade serving the people of Ohio and building coalitions. Now, as the Congresswoman for Ohio’s 11th District, she will fight for affordable quality health care, jobs that pay fair wages, a strong public education system, and equity and justice for all. Will you join her and be the change we need?
