On the radio show this week, we kick off by discussing why the affordability crisis is profoundly impacting the upcoming elections and what working families need. After that, we get essential information on how to make your voting plan, covering where, when, and why your participation matters. Next, we delve into the importance of dissent in a democracy, reflecting on historical rallies and current perspectives on the midterm elections. Finally, we close the show with new research examining the state of care affordability and access across the country, highlighting its critical link to women's economic justice.
