The midterm elections behind us, we were curious to know what issues concern you most. Whether you’re focused on Medicare and the environment, immigration or taxes, one thing is clear: Women are more engaged in our government, both as citizens and as representatives. At least 123 women will be in the next Congress after Tuesday’s midterm elections, breaking the 115th Congress’ record of 112. When women become involved, decisions are made and actions are taken.

“My biggest concern is hyper partisanship, with party over country. When we call each other libtards and deplorables without blinking an eye, we are shameful. I vote for individuals, and therefore I voted on both sides of the aisle, depending on the race.“
Bonnie Bell
“Returning to civility and stopping the hate. Caring for our citizens. Stopping the lawlessness in the streets. Controlling the border. Can’t even make valid comments on FB anymore without someone cussing, name calling and worse.“
Mary Markowitz
“I voted blue across the board this year. There is supposed to be a system of checks and balances in our government to ensure a tyrant does not take over. Apparently that is what has happened. Bet none of you have realized the current regime is looking to CUT Social Security and Medicare. And, the tax cuts set in place are only for the wealthy, not middle class, the poor or the elderly. Food for thought folks.“
