Strong Leaders Stand With Their Allies
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro makes a great statement:
"Strong leaders stand with their allies and they stand on their principles – and I believe we must continue to advocate for the values of freedom and liberty, not cower to dangerous dictators like Vladimir Putin."

I ask all women to #standwithUkraine and their valiant people.
