LISTENING TO | Niskanen Center's podcast episode "Could Women Save the GOP by Running for Office?" with Kodiak and Ariel Hill-Davis: "For years, Democrats have provided training and resources to women looking to run for office through organizations like EMILY’s List. Republicans have not, and the current demographics of Congress show the results. ... [Sisters Kodiak and Ariel Hill-Davis] discuss many of the unique roadblocks Republican women face on the campaign trail, but also touch on the many accomplishments moderate women have made in Congress. While the media likes to highlight individuals with the most outrageous rhetoric (men and women alike), many women are doing the hard, unglamorous work of governing behind the scenes." Learn more.
