Happy Birthday, Ayanna Presley!

Happy birthday to Ayanna Pressley!! As the representative of Massachusetts' 7th district, Ayanna has displayed the kind of bold, progressive leadership we need in this country. Her advocacy for working families, affordable healthcare, and education justice is more timely tha…

starting February right (thanks to you!!)

We made a big push to hit our January fundraising goal and start of 2022 right. Thanks to you, we exceeded our goal! This year, our top priority is supporting our 16 frontline Congresswomen. Not only are these women legislative powerhouses who have proven their ability to wi…

💯 across the board

NARAL just released their 2021 scores for Congressmember's voting records on reproductive freedom. 100% of HER Time's frontline Congresswomen got 100% from NARAL, which means they stood for reproductive freedom and abortion rights 100% of the time. Very 💯 of them. If we want to pro…

our goal

This month hasn't been the *best* start to 2022. Omicron is everywhere, the filibuster (and some really destructive Senators) are still blocking voting rights, and midterms look bleaker than ever. We want to turn things around by ending January as STRONG as possible — so we've set a…

Roe v. Wade

As of today, women's reproductive freedom has been protected by Roe v. Wade for forty-nine years. Here's the tough truth: it's not clear that this precedent will make it to its 50th year. With the Supreme Court poised to end abortion rights, we need to elect Congresswomen who are u…

Our frontline races got even harder...

In 2022, Katie Porter is running in a district that has changed by 66%. In Illinois, Lauren Underwood's has changed by 70%. And in Georgia, Lucy McBath's district has changed by 45% — which means her district now leans Republican by 15%. Midterms were already going to be hard for ou…

Mood: 🙄

Monday was Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It was a time to reflect on his great legacy and carry his fight forward. It was also an opportunity for a bunch of Republicans who have actively stood in the way of free and fair elections (one of MLK's biggest priorities) to disingenuously "h…

Lessons from MLK

This Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I can't help but think about all of the issues he fought for -- and how we are still fighting for them today. Securing a living wage, voting rights, and racial equality feels more pressing (and out-of-reach) than ever. But building a more equitable, …

Some perspective

At the start of 2022, I became a mother. My pregnancy was a miraculous surprise that came at the right time and, most importantly, one that I wanted. But having now experienced pregnancy, preeclampsia, and birth, I can't stop thinking about how WRONG it is to force someone through t…

Katie Porter -- redistricting update

Katie Porter is in a tough spot. Because of redistricting, Katie didn't know what district she would be running in until the very end of December. That leaves her just SIX MONTHS to get ready for her primary — and a district that is 66% new to her.  Will you make sure Katie has the…

Insurrection

This week was the anniversary of the January 6th insurrection. Unfortunately, it feels like our democracy is even more vulnerable now than it was 365 days ago. We need to pass meaningful voting rights legislation IMMEDIATELY if we want to protect our democracy from right-wing extrem…

A year ago today, the Capitol was attacked...

A year ago today, a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol. This anniversary is a very painful reminder of how close our country came to disaster. And, even after ALL that, Republicans STILL stand by the insurrectionists and their leader, Donald Trump. So here's my silver lining: our Hou…

violence against women act

It's a new year, which means it's a new opportunity to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act! Right now, lawmakers are fighting to reauthorize VAWA after years of Senate Republicans roadblocking it. This is one of HER Time's TOP legislative priorities. We need to protect all w…

The California recall is closer than you think

In California, a coalition of billionaire-backed Dark Money groups and right-wing extremists are doing everything they possibly can to recall Governor Gavin Newsom. The worst part? They might actually have shot... Will you help Gavin Newsom WIN September's recall election by splitting a …

For the first time in decades...

For the first time in 40 years, the House introduced a budget that GETS RID of the Hyde amendment. This amendment PREVENTS women, especially women of color and low income levels, from accessing abortion care. If you believe that a woman's access to a safe abortion should NEVER be depende…

We have a message for billionaires -

It's time to start paying your fair share! A recent ProPublica article revealed that our nation's wealthiest citizens are skirting their taxes, sometimes paying a whopping $0 in federal income tax! If the rest of us have to pay federal income tax, so should the wealthiest .01%!  If you a…

It's worse than we thought

A new law in Texas will ban abortion as early as 6 weeks and allow people to sue anyone they believe helped facilitate an abortion. And, that's not even the worst of it. A recent report details that more abortion restrictions have been passed in 2021 than in any other year. So, when we sa…

What does it mean to be a HER Time-endorsed candidate?
