The recent elections left us with a number of mixed emotions. Excited for new faces and firsts, worried about delayed outcomes in others and, of course, some disappointment.

We love election season! Voting is our favorite! We’re excited about voting because we know that each singular vote has an impact – and we know that moms, especially, must make themselves heard on Election Day. We also know that together, we are a powerful voting force - particularly in midterm elections when overall voter turnout is low. So it’s time to make a plan to vote on (or before) November 8th – and to help get out the vote. Like any other activity on the family calendar, we need to make a plan to vote to make this Election Day outing go as smoothly as possible. So, to make voting fun...

It’s Fall Y’all! As someone who lives in the south and had to deal with a very warm summer with lots of temperatures above 100, I can’t tell you how excited I am for sweater weather with cooler temps, changing colors, and all the things that come along with the autumnal season. It’s also a very busy time in Washington DC and we need to continue to let our elected representatives know how important it is for them to focus on the priorities important to American families. Plus: With the mid-term election less than 5 weeks away, we also have a special opportunity for you to help Get Out The Vote...

HHS recently released a new report showing that we have reached the lowest uninsured rate in American history in 2022 – just 8 percent ! So how did this happen? This progress didn’t happen by accident. More than 35 million Americans are enrolled in Affordable Care Act related coverage – the highest total on record. That includes 21 million people who are enrolled in the ACA’s expansion of Medicaid. Additionally, five million more people have gained health insurance coverage since the beginning of the Biden-Harris Administration – in large part because of the improvements to the ACA in the...

Last Friday was my daughter’s last day in her pre-k program. We found the program when we bought our house in 2019, a much simpler time, pre-pandemic. We toured a couple local centers, but ultimately fell in love with this one because of their play-based learning curriculum, the inclusion of nature in the program, and the amazing teachers.
