It is 100 days until Election Day and we all need to get busy if we want to protect health care for women and children, education funding and clean air and water for our children. If Mitt Romney gets elected, we can kiss health care for women and children good-bye, as well as funding for education and regulations that keep the air and water safe for our kids. These issues matters to mamas and we have to act like they matter.
Texas is a state that has voted for the Republican in the presidential election for a long time. Things are changing, though. Latinos make up a greater and greater proportion of our population and Romney is no friend to the issues that most Latinos care about - kids, civil rights and jobs. Romney is also no friend to Texas women and that is starting to be realized by more and more women across the state. Just a short while ago, Romney and President Obama were actually neck and neck in the polls in Texas! Now Romney is ahead but by an very small margin. Many mamas have often felt that our votes for Democratic candidates who care about our issues in Texas scarcely count given what a red state we live in, but things have changed - our votes really, really really COUNT!!!!
We must all vote and we must spread the word - our kids need President Obama to be re-elected.
We cannot afford to go back to the policies that broke our economy, polluted our air and water, sickened our children and bankrupted our children's schools under the Bush administration. We still have a long way to go before we even can recover fully from those times - we cannot return to them.
We have 100 days to win this! Mamas, make your voices heard!
