    How Democrats Can Win Big on Immigration with Beatriz Lopez of Immigration Hub

    How Democrats Can Win Big on Immigration with Beatriz Lopez of Immigration Hub

    Beatriz Lopez, the deputy director of the Immigration Hub, an organization dedicated to advancing fair and just immigration policies, discusses the GOP's strategy of using a multi-faceted misinformation machine to fuel anti-immigration sentiment — a fear-based strategy they've invested hundreds of millions of advertising dollars in, that they hope will result in a win at the ballot box. Beatriz Lopez believes that Democrats can counter the Republican strategy, by appealing to voters' desire to end the chaos at the border, to end cruel policies, and by leaning into our shared values as Americans.

    The Slippery Slope of Alabama's Supreme Court IVF Ruling: A Conversation with Betsy Campbell of RESOLVE

    The Slippery Slope of Alabama's Supreme Court IVF Ruling: A Conversation with Betsy Campbell of RESOLVE

    Betsy Campbell, the Chief Engagement Officer at RESOLVE The National Infertility Association, discusses the immediate, as well as the long term implications of the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that granted personhood status to embryos created during fertility treatments — a decision which effectively banned IVF treatments in the state. Since the ruling, a number of IVF clinics in Alabama have suspended their treatments, leaving families and their doctors, devastated. In this conversation, Betsy Campbell discusses where we go from here, what states should be on the radar for future IVF bans, and how you can protect fertility care in your state.

Sitting in on conversations with smart women.

I love listening to smart women! Ever since the election, I've felt frustrated, and helpless. I'm one of those people who wasn't really paying attention until November. These have been good, constructive conversations. I look forward to more!
