Counterattack: The Media, The War on Women, and How to Fight Back

Anti-woman sentiment in America keeps escalating, from Donald Trump's misogyny to Jeb Bush's claim that we spend too much on women's health care to Carly Fiorina's opposition to equal pay bills. We have been blocked from passing pro-woman laws like paid family leave while state-level abortion restrictions tighten and Congress sponsors witch hunts against Planned Parenthood.

I will be hosting a forum to learn more about these issues and strategize about how we can take action to win the war against women. Guests include Micky Blum, distinguished lecturer and Director of Baruch College Survey Research; Ariel Chesler, lawyer and author, Good Men Project; Katie Halper, comedian and writer, host of The Katie Halper Show on WBAI; and Tanya Melich, political analyst and author of The Republican War Against Women: An Insider's Report from Behind The Lines.

Space is limited, so please RSVP by contacting my office at 212-490-9535, or via email at spasquan@nysenate.gov.
