NEW: With @NPWF, TCF’s @GayleGoldin outlines 10 reasons why Jonathan Berry’s nomination as solicitor of labor is a serious threat to women, gender equity, and civil rights.

“Without national paid leave, millions of people in the U.S. find themselves at the mercy of their employers. About a quarter of women in the United States return to work just two weeks after giving birth.

It is no surprise that people, regardless of political affiliation, support paid leave.”

[Gayle Goldin @gaylegoldin]

I want to share why I’m voting for Sandra Cano.

Representation matters. 1/x

[Gayle Goldin @gaylegoldin]

But most of all for me, I know the political systems in this country protect the patriarchy. It is the courageous who can change that. And I have seen Sandra’s courage upfront and center. I have seen her challenge the status quo. 7/x
