A Pew study came out showing that moms are now 40% of breadwinners, and conservative "pundits" and politicians starting panicking, saying working moms are a "catastrophe" making America "mediocre," and more. Ridiculous! On this show experts and moms tell the real story about how having moms in the labor force is both a necessity for many families and is also helping our overall economy. We discuss the irony of leaders saying that moms shouldn't work as they also cut programs for hungry kids like SNAP (food stamps), we learn about ways to get access to healthy food, including how to buildi your own container garden), and more!
Thank you to special guests, including: Karen Showalter, MomsRising; Avis DeWeaver, President and CEO of Incite Unlimited, and Host of the new nationally-syndicated NPR radio show, Focus Point with Avis Jones-DeWeever; AnnMarie Duchon, MomsRising member; Maya Rockeymoore, Global Policy Solutions; Rep. McGovern (D-MA). #ManPanic
