About this listen

On the radio show this week, we dive into the importance of protecting democracy from voter suppression efforts. We also hear about the powerful representation and joy we experienced at this year's Winter Olympics -- and how narrative power can shift societal views for women, moms, and our families. Next, we cover the state of OUR union when it comes to maternal health, and the Trump administration's cuts to crucial programs that are worsening the crisis. Finally, we discuss New York state and New York City's historic investments in child care, how you can make victories like that happen where you live.
