Vote in your local, state, and federal elections. Too many women I know don't pay any attention to elections. They don't know who is their mayor, who are their representatives to Congress or the state legislature. This is allowing the right-wing Republicans to take over.

We need to raise consciousness about the need to make informed votes.
