Breaking Through: IVF, Abortion, WIC, Child Tax Credit, & More

February 26, 2024
On the radio show this week, we cover the outrageous Alabama Supreme Court IVF decision and the fight for access to IVF, abortion care, birth control, and to not have fewer freedoms than our children; the incredible power of Ai-jen Poo’s care infrastructure vision and how you can make a difference; the latest with the inside the Beltway battles for WIC and the CTC; and how corporations can (and must) work to build a care infrastructure too in order to retain employees and prosper.
