The 118th Congress was the least effective in modern history — yet they still managed to block attempts to protect women’s rights and introduced dangerous legislation. Now, with Trump heading into office and the Senate and House both in Republican control, it’s even more important that we do not roll over in standing up for all women.

Mary Gay knows to stop the dismantling of equal rights we must use every lever of power we have to fight this GOP from running amok in Congress. And that includes making sure the people – including you – are behind her.
