More than 100 years ago this week, the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution was certified, granting women the right to vote. But women's equality is far from complete, & women's rights today are under assault. That's why League of Women Voters of the US is fighting for women's empowerment. #WomenVote2024

After she was bombarded with AI-generated intimate deepfakes of herself as a child, Jenna Ortega deleted Twitter. We need regulations NOW to prevent AI from making social media platforms even more hostile spaces for women and girls. teenvogue.com/story/jenna-or…

Today is the 248th day of 2024. The Apalachee High School shooting is the 385th mass shooting of 2024. How many times does it have to be said? Gun violence is a public health crisis.
