I'm raising a child, and it's public. The media creates these dramas, and that's not what's happening in my life.
Raising the overtime threshold - something that is about to happen. This is more complex so not as many people understand it, but it's equally consequential.

Women somehow get portrayed as one type. You're either a feminist or you're not. You're a working woman or you're not. I'm raising two girls, and I say to them, 'I need you to be strong and soft. You can be smart and beautiful. . . You can be all of these things. '

If you haven't noticed, the children who are our future are good-looking, but they aren't all that bright.

I think raising wages, investing in infrastructure, making sure that people have access to good educations that equip them for the jobs of the future.

The problem was I couldn't convince the Republican Congress to pass a lot of them.
We come back to Kate Fagan of ESPN who says we need to reprogram the way we're raising men. You notice we never, ever, nobody ever discusses the possibility that we might need to reprogram the way we raise women. Why? Because that's already perfect.

Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace, Lord I know just how they feel.
