Don't allow your hard-won freedoms to be taken away

| November 1, 2024 1:00 AM

Let's get real: Cornel Rasor and the IFF scare the hell out of me. Why? Because I have watched women come so far in my lifetime and worry that people take that for granted. Today, American fathers and mothers watch their daughters soar to new heights because of those hard-won freedoms. Now, women can choose motherhood and marriage or not. We can excel at sports due to Title IX. We can own property and have a checking account without a man's signature. The crimes of rape and sexual abuse aren't being ignored and hidden like when I was growing up. Women vote and run for office. My mother grew up in a different world where she had no voice. 

Cornel Rasor represents those who want women put back in their place. He officially pledged his loyalty to the IFF on Tuesday. He will be instructed like a puppet on how to vote so your voices will never be heard. The IFF only wants White, Christian extremists in power. Women are half of America and deserve to be represented. Kathryn Larson knocks on doors, reaches out, listens to your concerns and has your back. Please give her your vote.
