Dear Friend,

2021 has been a year of hardships, joys, sorrows, hopes, fears,
challenges, wins and all that’s in between. As the year comes to a close,
we wanted it to end with GRATITUDE, for you and for all the amazing ways
you rose up to lift our country. And WOW did you rise and move much-needed
change.

Your action, your engagement, and your voice have brought about a new era
in which Congress and our country increasingly recognize that women's
problems are America's problems, and women's successes are America's
success – and that our families, businesses, economy and country
absolutely need a care infrastructure to thrive. After all, just like we
need to build bridges and roads to drive on to go to work, we need to
build a care infrastructure — including childcare for all, paid
family/medical leave, home-and community-based services for people who are
aging and the elderly, an extended Child Tax Credit, living wages and a
path to citizenship for care workers — so parents can work, children can
thrive, care workers can earn living wages, family costs can be lowered,
inflation be addressed, and businesses and our economy supported. Because
of your voice, more and more leaders with the power to make changes our
nation needs are acknowledging that our country will never realize its
full potential if women and, in particular, women of color continue to be
devalued, underpaid and left behind.

↓↓↓ Together we are a jaw-droppingly powerful force ↓↓↓
