This is a discouraging day for so many people across our country and around the world. But make no mistake: Nothing ends here. While many of us hoped for a different outcome, we knew that this was a possibility. Advocates, activists, and champions for Americans of all…
Every time I vote, I think about those who sacrificed to secure this precious right. We owe it to them—and to future generations—to make our voices heard. Everything you need to know about how and where to vote is available on vote.org.
82% of U.S. voters—across party lines—want political candidates and policymakers to prioritize increasing investments in caregiving. Dig into the rest of this fascinating survey data from @PivotalVentures and @BPC_Bipartisan bipartisanpolicy.org/blog/caregivin…
Josseli Barnica’s story is heartbreaking and maddening—and it shows just how much is on the line this election. Make a plan to vote, make your voice heard, and make sure our government knows that protecting women’s health isn’t optional. propublica.org/article/jossel…
Women know what’s right for themselves and their families. Protecting women’s reproductive rights is top of mind for me as I prepare to vote this election. With only 6 days to go, I hope you make a plan to vote if you haven’t already. Your voice matters.
As @aijenpoo notes in @TIME, VP Kamala Harris is giving families hope that “a better future for caregivers is within reach." Her plan to invest in women and families by prioritizing better care policies is one of the many reasons I’m proud to vote for her. m-gat.es/4hnoTkY
I’m in awe of Gisèle Pelicot's bravery and courage. In her darkest hour, she’s found the strength to remind survivors of violence that they’re not alone, that their voices matter, and that they deserve justice. Thank you, Madame Gisèle. m-gat.es/3UjyHTu
Happy 79th birthday to human rights activist, former First Lady of Mozambique and South Africa, and my very wise friend Graça Machel!! I’m still thinking about the conversation on collective power we had last year in Cape Town. m-gat.es/3BLMYBP
These trends are extremely disturbing, but I'm optimistic that we can turn them around. Why? Because it's been done before, and because we know what works: Invest in women, champion their leadership, & build support for policies that improve their lives. m-gat.es/3A0qyw3
Lilly Ledbetter never stopped pushing for what was right, no matter how many obstacles stood in her way. She left the world a more equal place than she found it.
Lilly Ledbetter, an equal pay and women's rights advocate whose lawsuit against her employer paved the way for the Fair Pay Act, has died at the age of 86. Ledbetter had worked at Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company for nearly two decades when she received an anonymous letter in the…

This new data sheds much-needed light on the heroic work of caregivers over 50—and it makes a strong case for giving them more support. m-gat.es/3Y9d3nb
I am so excited to announce my new book, The Next Day, is coming out in April 2025! You can learn more about it at melindafrenchgates.com
Happy 100th birthday, President Carter! You’re an inspiration to me and so many others, and I’m wishing you a wonderful birthday surrounded by your loved ones. 😊
Former President Jimmy Carter is 100 years old today! Join us in honoring our visionary co-founder, America’s humanitarian-in-chief. No other U.S. president has lived so long or done so much good for so many after leaving office. bit.ly/3zFj0Pf
Last week at #TheAlbies ✨ This event is incredibly meaningful because it shines a much-needed spotlight on courageous individuals who are fighting to advance justice and freedom all over the world. Thank you to the @ClooneyFDN for hosting!
Women make up more than 50% of the U.S. population, but only 33% of state legislators. As Phoebe and I talked about, it’s clear we have a lot of work to do to make our government more representative. Vote.org
