They say the courts will decide our future. This film proves they never have.

After the #SupremeCourt gutted the #VotingRightsAct, organizers’ truth stands: power is built on the ground, not handed down.

Honored to attend the 2026 Celebrating Women Breakfast hosted by @NYWomensFdn. A powerful morning centered on hope, leadership, and collective action. We left inspired and energized by the reminder that real change happens when communities show up together. ✨

The people who care most about their communities are often the ones who don’t think they’re “qualified” to #lead. But real change starts when everyday people step up and get involved. Maybe it’s your turn. #RunForOffice

Women in public life are facing escalating threats—and it’s reshaping who can lead. Check out this new blog via @KetteringFdn co-authored by our Founder & CEO @ErinVilardi, Women's Democracy Lab ED @muthoniwambu & Matriots Ohio CEO Emily Quick Schriver. This is structural. We’re building solutions. Read + share! https://t.co/X3hqx58DF1

If you’re an elected woman, we want to hear from you.

We need your input in our bipartisan survey—now—to understand how women are leading, what it takes to be effective, and what organizations and funders must do differently to sustain your leadership.

Don’t wait. Take the survey today. https://t.co/s30JCIBuCm

Big win for working families in Virginia 🎉 Paid leave is moving forward. VA ranks #15 in #WomensRepresentation (40.7% women legislators), & it shows. More women at the table = more equitable policy. This is progress 💙

Political harassment against women leaders is real, escalating, & a threat to democracy. Last month, @ketteringfdn, @MatriotsOhio & Women's Democracy Lab convened leaders to map threats, examine real cases, & build coordinated solutions. When women lead safely, democracy thrives.

Women have been running communities, building plans, and leading while being told we’re “not ready.” Stop waiting. Step up. Be audacious. History is yours. #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenLead

The next generation of leaders is ready. But threats to safety, financial strain, and outdated systems are pushing them out of office.

The question is: are our systems ready for them?! 🤔

Amid everything happening in our world, here’s something worth celebrating: 99 #VoteRunLead alums sworn into office. That’s 99 women and gender-expansive leaders stepping into power and showing what’s possible when we run—and win—for our communities.

How do states and cities move from ambition to action on universal child care?

On Wednesday, January 21st at 11:00 a.m. EST, Vote Run Lead is partnering with Future Forward Women to host Time for Care: A Blueprint from New Mexico and Beyond—a policy design webinar focused on what it actually takes to build universal, durable child-care systems.

The conversation will explore lessons from New Mexico’s statewide model, emerging city–state approaches, and what leaders need to consider around political will, financing, governance, and real-world impact on families and the care workforce.

As we grieve Renee Nicole Good, leaders rooted in community are guiding, informing, and supporting those on the ground. Rest is not retreat — it is preparation. Take care of yourself and each other as we continue to show up for justice.
