Voters are a force for health.

Voters are a "force for health".

My maternal grandmother Anna Sherover, was active in the suffragettes movement after she was married as a young women 100 years ago. My daughters all are  strong independent professional women that voted. One of them inherited her wedding ring. This week, she wore this ring into the voting booth and voted while wearing that ring. I am proud to be a family that values the power of the vote, democracy, and fighting for what is right. Voters are a force for health. Now let’s come together and take on the next challenges to make this a more equitable, inclusive, and healthier society.
