Happy Mother's Day! We are so proud of all the pro-choice Democratic moms who have stepped up to run for office.
Because when moms are in office, policy outcomes change for the better. When moms are at the decision making table, we all benefit. #HappyMothersDay #ElectMoms

.@TammyforIL knows what it’s like to be a working mom. In 2018, Tammy became the first senator to give birth while in office.

Rep. @katieporteroc is the only single mom with young children in Congress. She understands the challenges moms face, including expensive child care costs.

.@AngieCraigMN, the first gay mom in Congress, made it possible for LGBTQ+ couples to adopt children in TN when she fought for custody of her son in court.
