VOTE FOR WOMEN today!! March is women’s history month. Today is primary election day in 15 states. We have two women running for the US President, Marianne Williamson - Democrat, and Nikki Haiy - Republican. Both of these women are smart, strong and more capable than their opponents. We need women to lead! We need women in power! We need women to support other women, and smart men supporting women. It’s time to make history! Go vote today!!! #primaryelection2024 #voteforwomen #MarianneWilliamson2024 #NikkiHaley2024 #voteforchange2024 #MakeHistory #womeninpolitics #womensupportingwomeninpolitics #womensupportingwomen

It's October! Women of #Georgia, let’s make a powerful statement on the first day of early voting! Your voice matters, and it’s time to show up and be heard. For more details, scan the QR code or click the link in the comments below. Together, we can make a difference! #montinaspeaks

In some ways it feels like 3 days together isn’t enough. That we are just getting started. #NAWBO sisters in Washington DC remind me that we are here to support each other and sometimes the best way to get to know each other is through adversity! When there are gaps, we step in. My Washington DC big takeaway… if we want to advocate for women in business, we need to vote and elect women politicians into office. They often sponsor and promote the bills that support women because they also GET IT! Not that others aren’t willing to support the bills… just a lot harder to create momentum. #microbusiness

Day 4: Women Voter- Challenges and Future Directions Today, we continue our Women Suffrage Awareness Program with a focus on the critical challenges women voters face and the paths forward.  Women have fought tirelessly for their right to vote, yet barriers still exist, be it access or representation. Let’s amplify our voices and pave the way for a more inclusive democracy! Your participation is crucial. Together, we can advocate for change and ensure that every woman’s vote counts. #WomenVote #SuffrageAwareness #EmpowerWomen #ctte

Voice matters...your voice matters. We applaud Dr. Patricia Campos-Medina for her voice and the stand she is taking to self-empower, ensuring access and inclusion for herself as a candidate running for office. It is simply unacceptable to be a woman who must face men who are both physically and organizationally blocking her from access to democracy. More importantly, blocking experienced women and multicultural women from their potential to run government, which directly impacts the lives of people, communities, education, health care, small businesses, corporations, etc., means that certain important issues involving women ultimately don't get addressed with urgency or importance. Note: Latina Surge National 501c3 nonprofit is an educational and charitable organization. It is non-political and non-partisan in its mission to advocate and educate for the advancement of women, most especially underrepresented and underserved women, across all areas in society. We encourage our members and allies to share stories of self-empowerment, especially for multicultural women who continue to face barriers and take a stand to define access and inclusion for themselves based on the merits of their experience and aptitude.

💡As Latinas, our voices matter! As research reflects, we have so much to lose when we put ourselves out there, against the wall of systemic racial challenges. Yet, we are resilient because we have the ever-present deep determination to achieve equity and justice. I implore anyone interested in understanding just how blatant the challenges are to hear this interview of Dr. Patricia Campos-Medina with Mark J. Bonamo of #NJNow. Dr. Campos-Medina is fierce in using her voice for women's justice, and just as determined in taking a stand to self-empower, ensuring access and inclusion for herself as a candidate running for office. It is simply unacceptable to be a woman who must face men who are both physically and organizationally blocking her from access to democracy. ⁉️Hermanas, what are your thoughts? My view: blocking experienced multicultural women from their potential to run government, which directly impacts the lives of people, communities, education, health care, small businesses, corporations, etc., means that certain important issues involving women ultimately don't get addressed with urgency or importance.
