I answered the call from @reshmasaujani and @MomsFirstUS to write a letter to the editor about child care affordability & accessibility in Indiana & it was published today: indystar.com/story/opinion/r… via @indystar #ChildCareOnTheRecord
Couldn’t end the day without sharing my first-ever Substack post on this godforsaken app I’ve been on since 2007. A love letter to my postpartum self, the new (& not-so-new) moms in my life, & to all the Type Aeldest daughters journeying into motherhood: open.substack.com/pub/ellenf…

If you’re a “senior Democrat” that feels this way, you should absolutely retire and make space for true leadership that refuses to resign themselves to fascism.
This kind of leadership is functionally useless to the American people. Retire.
A senior House Democrat tells Axios: "We've all resigned ourselves to a second Trump presidency." axios.com/2024/07/14/house-d…
Fascinating thread to understand the residuals part of the actors’ strike

Before the next election, you might want to find a better way to poll anyone under the age of 30 since they would rather pick up a pinless grenade than a call from an unknown number.

This is SO Indiana. The state is going to tax working class families for the $10K-20K they’ll get in student loan forgiveness but chose NOT to tax businesses that got hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in PPP loan forgiveness. 🤔 #wthr
Indiana will tax student loan forgiveness on a state and county level.

i think it's very funny that the house of the dragon guys are like "we want to reflect the misogyny of the time period" the time period is the twelfth of makebelieve. it's the 149th year of sir gooby the dragonfoot. it's the eighth age of targabargabor. it's literally made up

Wonder what would have happened if these companies spoke up BEFORE the bill was passed.

Also worth noting: Lilly consistently declined to comment on the legislation until the bill was signed.
Signing a deeply unpopular bill under cover of darkness without taking the extra time to consider the damaging consequences demonstrates just how out of touch with Hoosiers you are on this issue. We won’t forget. #BansOffIndiana

While lawmakers discuss the bill, there has been sustained boos, cheers and chanting the entire time from abortion rights protesters just outside the chamber.

Still getting used to writing editorials but this one flowed - thanks to a trip down memory lane on RFRA.

When a majority of Hoosiers believe in a woman’s right to legal abortion care, the @INSenateGOP’s actions tonight prove we don’t have a legislature representing Hoosier values. That has EVERYTHING to do with our election process and safeguarding democracy. I won’t stay silent. – at Indianapolis, IN
