You call these "family values"??

Republicans like to say that they're the party of "family values." But in the last year, Republicans have: Prevented the extension of Child Tax Credits Blocked spending on baby formula during a national shortage Tried to overturn same-sex marriage Passed bills that punish parents who s…

It's time for blue states to act

Republicans have made it clear that they will try to pass laws banning women from the right to choose whenever they can.  We'll fight back against their attacks with everything we can. But in the meantime, we need blue states to start taking substantial action to protect women's reproducti…

Do Republicans understand the concept of irony??

Republicans spend a lot of time talking about how they're the "pro-life" party.  But yesterday, 192 House Republicans VOTED AGAINST an emergency spending bill meant to address the nationwide baby formula shortage. They voted against baby formula, which many babies need to SURVIVE.  So no…

Katie Porter gets kitchen table issues

Last week, Katie Porter told her House Democratic Caucus colleagues about a recent grocery shopping trip. There was nothing out of the ordinary, except when she was shopping she had to put a package of bacon back after realizing it was $10/pound.  Here's why Katie's story is so important: …

This is so frustrating

For years, Democrats have been telling you to vote for them because they will protect the right to choose. Then, with everything on the line, a Democrat in the Senate votes against a bill that would codify Roe v. Wade.  It's so hard to not feel disillusioned after that. But here's the thi…

Joe Manchin sucks

Today the Senate voted on the Women's Health Protection Act, which would codify Roe v. Wade into federal law and protect the reproductive freedom of millions of women. To no one's surprise, every Republican in the chamber voted against it. But one Democrat joined them: Joe Manchin. One ma…

Keep up the fight ✊

John, Over the weekend, people mobilized across the country in support of abortion rights. This sort of energy is exactly what we need to take on the challenges to come. Abortion is still legal for now, but as soon as the Supreme Court releases their official decision to overturn Roe v. W…

For all the moms out there 💜

Happy Mother's Day, John! This is my first Mother's Day as a mom, which I'm *very* excited about.  It's a total cliche, but it's true. Being a mom is the hardest job in the world — especially in a country with so little maternal support. That being said, it's also the best, most rewarding…

It's primary season for Katie Porter

In the next two months, more than half of HER Time's frontline Congresswomen will have primary elections, including Katie Porter. The importance of this year's elections has been made PAINFULLY clear by the news this week that the Supreme Court has decided to overturn Roe v. Wade.  Now, …

BREAKING: Roe v. Wade overturned

  It's happened. According to an initial opinion, the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade — which will leave millions of women across the country without the right to choose what they do with THEIR OWN BODIES. We need your help, NOW. We're supporting unapologetically pro-c…

Thank you, John 💗

The money behind the anti-LGBTQ bills

Over the last four years, anti-LGBTQ groups have raised insane amounts of money — over $110 million, as estimated by the Southern Poverty Law Center. The legalization of same-sex marriage in 2016 kickstarted a massive fundraising effort by homophobic organizations, one that has only gotte…

A dystopian future is here

A woman in Texas was arrested last week and charged with MURDER over a self-induced abortion. This is inhumane, violating, and archaic. A future where women are punished for making medical decisions about THEIR OWN BODIES is no longer just a possibility. It's happening.  We need …

Katie Porter's whiteboard has an important message

If we want to pass legislation that uplifts women and protects their bodies, then we need to elect more women. Congress is still made up of almost 75% men.  There are so many issues — paid family leave, revenge porn, ABORTION RIGHTS — that must be addressed by Congress. And one o…

screaming, internally and externally

Last week, the Oklahoma legislators passed an all-out abortion ban. The ONLY exception is for pregnant women in a medical emergency — which means underaged pregnancies and pregnancies from rape must be carried to term. The maximum penalty for breaking this law? Ten years in pension and a $10…

Don't let them hurt our kids.

Every child should have access to support, love, and community — no matter their identity. Full stop.  The wave of recent “Don’t Say Gay” and anti-trans bills introduced by GOP lawmakers will do the exact opposite. They'll isolate LGBTQ youth, prevent trans kids from gender-affirming car…

A good day to be a woman

@Republicans, make it make sense.
