Women can run with kids just like men can.

 

Jack, did you know that *most* women wait to run for office until their kids are grown?

Gif of Tiktok Kelly Krout made featuring her and her kids. There is text over the front of her video that says, “Most women who run for office wait until their kids are grown.”

Me and almost all of my crew!

Women with children can run for office just like men do. And it’s time we stop letting the patriarchy push a narrative that women with school-age children should not hold public office, because that’s *so* silly!

 

If my husband were to run for office with our seven kids, people would be like, “Rock on. Congrats!” (And they should! Kev is great.) But when people find out that I’m running for Arkansas Lieutenant Governor with my crew, I often hear, “Oh my gosh, don't you have enough on your plate?”

 

On this campaign, we have a chance to not only elect a Democrat in Arkansas (and we can) but also prove that women can and should run for office no matter what stage of their life they are in.

 

Can I count on you to rush $25 or any amount you can to help us destroy this outdated narrative that women should wait until their kids are grown to advocate for their future?

I gained unique insight into how many of the systems impacting Arkansans work, and where things could improve while operating within the child welfare system as both a foster mom and when we adopted some of our boys.

We deserve leaders who will help people navigate clunky systems AND work to make these systems more accessible.

That's why I'm in this race -- for my family and yours.

If you believe we could use more moms in elected office, I hope you’ll donate any amount you can to help us prove the strength of our campaign before our March 31 quarterly deadline.

Thanks so much for having my back.

Let’s get it done!

-Kelly
