If you used to listen to our podcast The Suburban Women Problem, this week’s guest needs no introduction. If this is your first time being introduced to the superwoman who is Rep. Dr. Jasmine Clark, we are so excited to introduce you to her!
Jasmine is a PhD microbiologist. She’s a mom. She teaches nursing at Emory University. She co-hosted The Suburban Women Problem for four years. She’s been elected to the Georgia State House of Representatives four times. And now she’s running for US Congress!
It was so fun to catch up with Jasmine and hear all about how her kids are doing, how her Congressional race is going, and what we all need to know going into November’s midterms. When she talked about how her 18-year-old daughter just got to vote for the first time… and it was for her mom to be the first Black woman with a science PhD in Congress… we all burst into tears.
She’s used to being outnumbered in the Georgia State House: as a mom, as a scientist, and as a Democrat. So when she tells us that there’s so much good legislation she and other Dems can pass in the next two years, even with Trump in the White House, we believe her.
Jasmine and other women like her are making history, kicking ass, and taking names. We have a little less than two weeks to bring this election home. Make sure you’re talking to everyone you know about voting!
