🙋‍♀️ Raise your hand if you’ve ever taken Mifepristone.

Today SCOTUS is hearing arguments in an abortion case that will decide whether nationwide restrictions will be placed on mifepristone. MAGA Republicans aren’t stopping until women have no rights.

Indiana just became the 31st state (!!!!) to allow candidates to use donations for childcare #CFCC (thanks to a request by 2 mamas Senator Andrea Hunley and State Representative Victoria Garcia Wilburn—along with help from @votemamafoundation). votemamafoundation.org/cfccstates

Last week, the Prince George’s County Council rejected a resolution to allow legislators to vote remotely. That means pregnant CM Krystal Oriadha would be unable to vote safely while on maternity leave.

And guess what? This was done just to silence her.

So disgusted by the blocks that are put in front of pregnant women and moms of young kids running for and holding office. And so proud of all that Liuba Grechen Shirley and Vote Mama Foundation are doing to knock down the barriers.

Sending much love to Jennifer Wexton after hearing the news of her heartbreaking diagnosis. Jennifer is one tough mama, and an incredibly compassionate and fearless leader. I am so grateful for her tremendous advocacy and service in Congress 💙

Extremist groups like Moms For Liberty have launched a coordinated attack on our schools. There's so much at stake — we can't afford to sit on the sidelines.

Vote Mama is proud to support candidates who will fight for ALL kids as hard as they fight for their own. #ElectMoreMoms

Great to get a shoutout from Melinda French Gates in NPR!

Did you know that Virginia is the ONLY state in the South that hasn't passed an abortion ban after the fall of Roe? Abortion access across the South hinges on the outcome of November elections.

The GOP came for our rights, and now we're coming for their seats. #ElectDemMamas

All eyes are on Virginia! The stakes of November elections are high, and our rights are on the line.

Vote Mama is proud to support these pro-choice, Democratic moms. Meet our candidates!

Proud mama moment!

Our Founder and CEO, Liuba Grechen Shirley, and her daughter, Mila, joined Governor Kathy Hochul for a women’s rights celebration. Hochul is the first woman ever elected Governor of NY, and was the first member of our Advisory Committee! #ElectMoreWomen #ElectMoreMoms

Last month, Vote Mama Foundation's CEO Liuba Grechen Shirley laid out how mothers are underrepresented and overlooked in politics. In our latest today, she looks at how we can provide a more inclusive space and why we need mothers for equitable representation. ⬇️

AG Fitch authored the lawsuit that overturned Roe v. Wade & refuses to hold corrupt officials accountable. Mississippi deserves better.

Vote Mama is thrilled to endorse Greta Kemp Martin, a mama who has dedicated her life to justice and who will stand up for working families!

$42 million a year on viagra. Men sure do have their priorities!

Anybody else sick of Republicans weaponizing motherhood to attack our most fundamental rights?

Love our mamas running for re-election! Vote Mama is proud to endorse these incredible Democratic candidates who will use their lived experiences as mothers to stand up for women, children, and working families in Congress.

The fate of our democracy rests on whether Democrats have control of Congress in 2024. So excited to announce our newest Vote Mama endorsed federal mamas!

TW: Pregnancy Loss
I had a miscarriage a week before Mother's Day.

And I've learned that most of my friends have had one — if not many — losses, but no one talks about it.

That’s a whole hell of a lot of trauma we’re carrying alone, so I wrote about it…

We would be a different nation with vastly different policy priorities if more women and moms were serving in office.

Thank you Melinda French Gates for partnering with Vote Mama to dismantle the barriers that hold us back. Together we will build the political power of moms!

Ted telling Black leaders they’ve lost their way. Maybe you should take a closer look at Republicans Ted.
