Statement “It is hard to contemplate a candidate more unfit, unqualified, and problematic to serve as U.S. Secretary of Defense than Pete Hegseth. Hegseth has made numerous comments about women and moms serving in the military that are disrespectful, sexist, ignorant, insulting and truly outrageous. There are credible allegations that he has committed sexual assault and domestic violence and that he has a history of serious alcohol abuse and financial mismanagement. He is not only utterly unqualified, he has clearly exercised horrible judgment time and again.

Statement “North Carolina moms are deeply disappointed that the legislators we elected made the terrible decision to override Governor Roy Cooper’s wise and necessary veto of H.B. 10, and make this horrendous, harmful bill our state’s law. This anti-immigrant, anti-education law will cause significant harm to North Carolina moms, families, schools, and our state’s economy. Beginning on December 1, our local sheriffs will be forced to collaborate with U.S.

Statement “America’s moms want all our children to be educated in excellent, inclusive schools. Our schools must cultivate learning for children of all abilities, welcome every student, teach accurate history, and prepare each child to succeed. Sadly, President-Elect Trump’s nominee to lead the U.S Department of Education, Linda McMahon, the former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, is wholly unqualified to support those goals.
