We have to fight back NOW

The people are pissed

A Women's Place It’s time to take action The NRCC is confident in their “winning strategy” going after their list of Dems they think are vulnerable, but what they don’t seem to get is that the people are PISSED. Trump and the House GOP have fired hundreds of thousands of workers, plunged …

Bribing Americans this Mother’s Day?

A Women's Place Just give moms what they’re asking for Mother’s Day is coming up, and Trump has just the solution to make life easier for growing families… JUST KIDDING! He’s actually looking for ways to bribe Americans into having more babies — but only if you’re married and fulfill his i…

Did you see this?

100 days of wtf

A Women's Place This is batsh*t John, today marks 100 days since the start of Trump's disastrous, dangerous presidency. The urgency of this moment has never been so clear, and it’s all hands on deck (yours too). While our founder, Mary Gay, is in Congress doing everything she can to disru…

Fighting Back

A Women's Place Authoritarianism is on the rise Trump is willfully flouting a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling and refusing to bring an innocent man home from a foreign prison and give him due process. Checks and balances are NOT OPTIONAL in our constitution, but the GOP is caving — we need …

GOP climate deniers

A Women's Place Mary Gay’s last email   John, there wasn’t much to celebrate this Earth Day, while we’ve got a president who says climate change is a hoax because clean investments won’t make his special interest donors rich. That’s why this week we pledged to fight back and recommit to our …

High taxes? We NEED change

A Women's Place Thank you for your support The NRCC wasn’t ready for what we showed them this week, John. We talked about how the NRCC (the Republican Congressional campaign arm) just released their 26 top Dem targets in the House for the cycle — and how important it will be to show that w…

A Women's Place Time to say when We never thought we’d have a reason to say this, but Presidents’ Day this year (at least for us) was a doozy. Donald Trump hasn’t let a day go by without reminding us just how dangerous his presidency can get, but it really hit home on the day we honor those…
