What do you think the most important issues are for Minnesota women in this election?

I think women are concerned about what's going to happen now that welfare reform or TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) limits have expired for many women and children that need assistance.

I believe women care most about issues surrounding economic equality and childcare and will vote for candidates that will fight on those issues.

--Matthea Little Smith, Mother, Grandmother, Community Activist and Director of Unity Vote Project

Choice is very important for women this election because reproductive freedom is silently in danger of added restrictions depending on who's elected.

--Janet Nelson, MN NARAL
