be more politically active

I am now heavily involved in a birth options advocacy organization and with upcoming elections and women’s rights being threatened left and right, there’s no shortage of places for my energy to flow. Awesome!

I’m part of a group of local women who are organizing a consumer group to advocate for safe birth alternatives for women (basically legalizing midwifery in the state of Iowa). Exciting.

I’m trying to read up on the dem candidates so I can figure out who I want to caucus for next year. I’m leaning towards Edwards.

I actually live in a state where pre-election stuff is important, so I’m thinking that I should do something to be involved in the next presidential election. Cool.
