For anyone who wondered if you can go to Congress as a single mom, nurse, pastor, politivist, & survivor, be your full self, vote your conscience, deliver for your community, and get re-elected—St. Louis and I have our answer. St. Louis, your Congresswoman loves you.

We quickly realized our coalition of movement leaders could only be effective if we helped women who were running independent of institutional support. To empower them to run their best campaigns. Money was offered. Money was pulled. @MatriarchOrg’s support has been grassroots

When we launched @MatriarchOrg there was an offer by a group who wanted to bring us in, but it was contingent on some very questionable strategies - like sharing staff, signing onto issues that movement leaders said weren’t strong enough, endorsing their candidates. 1/

I'm incredibly honored to have earned @MatriarchOrg’s endorsement – especially as someone who grew up in a matriarchal culture. 🧵 (1/3)
Matriarch is proud to endorse @KylieTaitano in CA-50! A progressive who does not accept corporate donations, she is a member of the California Democratic Party Executive Board and an experienced grassroots organizer, organizing dozens of volunteers to knock on thousands of doors

We are incredibly honored to have received @MatriarchOrg's endorsement.
Today, we're endorsing Angelica Dueñas for CA-29! Angelica is a working class mother of five raising her family on food stamps. She's served her community on local neighborhood councils, but watched as the American dream moved further out of reach for her district.

I was at the @MatriarchOrg training last weekend. @CoriBush, @CynthiaNixon, @RepCannon, and so many incredible women were there supporting women who run. #thesquad #matriach #progressiveincongress #ashmiforcongress

Good thread by @_kathymnewman on book banning. She says run for school & library boards, get involved in local politics. Working class women, reach out to @MatriarchOrg. I suggest also building stronger, more progressive unions in the targeted institutions @edrabinski (Go!)
@CoreyRobin I teach a class at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh on Banned Books. I’ve been teaching it every few years for 25 years. Here is what I have learned.
Some never got - one in particular-that it was never about politics; it was about saving lives. @MatriarchOrg
Mayor @CarmenYulinCruz keeps a reminder from Hurricane Maria next to her desk- 3,000 beautiful human lives lost due to grotesque political negligence and greed. #Matriarch2020

One of the people I admire greatly and the only reason why I'm watching #AndJustLikeThat is @CynthiaNixon and right now she talking to 100+ progressive women who are running, ran or will run for a public office: "You just need the audacity to do it!" @MatriarchOrg @catchfiremvmt
Such an informative training so far. Love being with all these women even if just virtually.
