Suburban women helped decide the 2020 election. But we’re just getting started. Are you ready to be part of The Suburban Women Problem? Sign up here to join our amazing community of women.

In today’s episode, hosts Rachel Vindman, Jasmine Clark, and Amanda Weinstein discuss the CDC’s new guidance on masks and whether they’re feeling ready to jump back into normal life this summer. After that, our hosts discuss the wave of Voter ID laws that have suddenly been cropping up across the country. Rachel and Amanda admit that they didn’t realize how restrictive some of these voting laws were until they saw the effects first-hand. And for another perspective, our hosts speak with activist and organizer Mari Yepez, who grew up in Arizona and has worked to get out the vote since the age of 19.

Then Amanda interviews Nse Ufot, the CEO of The New Georgia Project, the organization started by Stacey Abrams to defend voting rights in Georgia. Nse reveals what Stacey said to convince her to join the organization (hint: it involved brunch!), the strangest thing that’s happened to her on Zoom, and her favorite binge-watch of the pandemic.

Finally, our hosts celebrate their grandmothers, parks, and being lifelong learners in this week’s “Toast To Joy.”
