Women across the country staged what may be the largest protest in our nation’s history.  People are mobilizing, speaking out against a range of policies that discriminate against women and treat them as second class citizens. While we may pressuring current elected officials to change these policies, the only sure way to accomplish this is to elect representatives in all levels of government that embrace your principles.

As the testy, defensive and contradictory reactions pouring from the White House and GOP bigwigs attest, Saturday’s Women’s March—which started as a March on Washington and quickly spread throughout the country and then the world, in major cities and small villages and everything in between—has put the new administration and Congress on notice that millions of us are not on board with what the GOP power triumvirate plans for us, and the planet.  Sussex Democrats took part, and shared their stories.
