Statement “Virginia will be stronger, healthier, and more successful when Governor Abigail Spanberger signs into law the paid family and medical leave and earned sick days bills the state legislature passed last Friday, allowing 3.2 million of the state’s working people access to paid time off to recover from serious illness or injury or to care for a seriously ill family member. Her election is making enactment of these essential laws possible; former Gov. Glenn Youngkin had callously vetoed them. What a difference an election makes!

Statement “Tonight, a President who is failing moms, families, and the country demonstrated once again how deeply and fundamentally out-of-touch he is with the realities of our lives and with the truth. President Trump delivered lies, delusions, and dangerous slurs. “His promise of an economic boom rings hollow with moms across America, coming from a President who is making parenting unaffordable while increasing the cost of health care, gutting education, undermining affordable child care, and causing the cost of groceries to rise.

Statement “America’s moms want a leader who recognizes our contributions and our struggles – and acts to make our families stronger and more successful.  Moms know what research shows: When we make families stronger and more successful, we make our economy and our country stronger and more successful, too. But that will only happen when child and elder care are affordable; when wages are fair; when paid family and medical leave is available to all; and when we invest in schools, food and nutrition, and quality health care, including maternal and reproductive care.

News release Washington, DC — Amid an escalating wave of militarized immigration enforcement, the Gender Equity Coalition (GEC), joined by 80 organizations and movement allies, delivered a letter today demanding that Congress use its constitutional oversight and funding authority to rein in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

Statement “America’s moms have been horrified for months as ICE and CBP have terrified communities, torn families apart, teargassed and shot peaceful protestors, racially profiled hardworking people going about their daily routines, and in other ways violated the basic human rights and constitutional protections of people in our communities.

It must end, and the U.S.
