For the first time since the board’s inception more than 150 years ago, the powerful L.A. County Board of Supervisors will consist of ALL WOMEN! Congratulations to WFC Board member Holly J. Mitchell on making HISTORY!

So many of us voted. Over 100 million Americans voted early and by mail and tens of millions of us took to the polls yesterday to participate in our imperfect democracy. A record-breaking 11.2 million ballots were cast in advance of election day here in California alone. We are STILL catalysts for change & we are building our feminist future. Right now.

We the people will be counted! TOMORROW IS #ELECTIONDAY! How are you showing up on #ElectionDay? #RideOutToVote

There's only 5 days until #ElectionDay! We know it's tough right now, so we created Your Voice, Your #VOTE. We hope this gives you a little inspiration (and Jane Fonda energy) you need.
