Episode 471: Christie Hefner (Vote Her In, Episode 57)
On the 57th episode of the #VoteHerIn series, a partnership project of Two Broads Talking Politics/Kelly Pollock and Rebecca Sive, author of Vote Her In: Your Guide to Electing Our First Woman President, you’ll hear an interview with Christie Hefner.
Center for American Progress leader, and longtime women’s political activist, Christie Hefner, joins us for a special Inaugural #VoteHerIn podcast. American democracy is at a critical juncture; all of us need to be well-informed, on-deck, and mobilized to advocate for women’s and girls’ equality and opportunity. To help us sort-through how to proceed, Christie will discuss the current state of affairs in DC—and all across the nation—for women activists. We’ll consider the CAP Action women’s policy agenda; how the COVID-19 pandemic factors-in; and what the unfortunate unemployment numbers mean for women workers.
