EMILY’s List President Laphonza Butler on the 2022 Midterms

Daniella speaks with Laphonza Butler, president of EMILY's List, about the 2022 midterm elections, electing Democratic pro-choice women to office, and why Democrats should rally around the past year's accomplishments.

Part of a Series

This week on “The Tent,” Daniella is joined by Laphonza Butler, president of EMILY’s List, an organization that helps Democratic pro-choice women get elected at the federal, state, and local levels. They discuss the fast-approaching midterm elections, the importance of having diverse representation at all levels of government, and why it’s so critical for Democrats to rally around the accomplishments they’ve made in just one year.
