This article addresses the rise in diverse female candidates running for Congress from both sides of the political spectrum.
In 2018, I was at a lunch with a few friends who had worked on Beto's campaign, and we talked about how #TX24 nearly flipped.https://www.thelily.com/more-women-are-running-for-house-seats-than-ever-even-2018/ …
“One of them said, ‘You know, a woman of color could really bring this home.’ Valenzuela nodded, continuing to eat her lunch. When she looked up, she said, both her friends were staring at her.”
“‘I’m a black woman in Texas,' she remembers telling them. 'I’m about to have a baby. I can’t be thinking about setting up a congressional run right now.'”
“Then she thought about 2018 candidates like Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif.), who won in 2018 as a single mom with three young children. Porter 'ran unabashedly,' Valenzuela said, 'advocating for truth and honesty with limited BS.''
