Just imagine the toll that worry is taking on families across this country. But as a mom, it is frightening thinking about all these young people who were just our babies yesterday, quarantined alone in dorms or apartments with little or no support as the disease continues to spread, unable to come home if their symptoms get worse. Yes, it’s anecdotal, of course, and everybody wants their kids back in school as soon as it’s safe. But in just a few weeks since schools have resumed, many of their friends who returned to campus have either tested positive or are living with someone who has. Look, our daughters are in college now, and luckily, they’re taking classes from home this semester. From his constant downplaying of the importance of masks and social distancing, to his relentless pressure on schools to open without offering a clear plan or meaningful support to keep students and teachers safe. If you’re a parent like me, you’re feeling the consequences of this president’s failure to take this pandemic seriously. If we want to regain any kind of stability, we’ve got to ensure that every eligible voter is informed and engaged in this election.īecause the stakes are on display every day, not just in the headlines, but in our families. Because let’s be honest, right now our country is in chaos because of a president who isn’t up to the job.


Votes are already being cast and if you’re still deciding who to vote for or whether to vote at all, I wanted to take a moment to remind you what’s at stake and to urge you to make a plan to vote today. Believe it or not, the election is right around the corner.
