Hey Friend,



I think you’ll agree that too many moms and families in District of Columbia
faced incredibly difficult challenges this year, from healthcare scares
and struggles with access to care, to sky-high childcare bills, to
terrifying threats of gun violence, to the absence of desperately needed
paid family/medical leave in a critical time, to the negative impacts of
racism and misogyny in our paychecks and in our lives.

But there is hope! Here in District of Columbia, thousands of ordinary people
like you and I united with humor, grace, persistence, and fierceness to
meet these challenges. We picked up our phones, made our voices heard at
meetings and rallies, wrote impassioned emails and letters and postcards
urging action, and advocated for reforms that really help families.

We resisted and persisted. And together, we made unstoppable MOMentum.

across our great nation. Today, I’m asking you to Keep Rising for the
great people of District of Columbia and beyond with a year-end contribution
to MomsRising Together.

When you give, a sister MomsRising donor will MATCH your gift and DOUBLE
your power!

Thanks to your activism and support, we made real progress for moms and
families.
