Violence against women is as American as apple pie  (Gwen Moore Quotes) I’ve been the co-chair of the Non - Partisan Women’s Caucus and vice - chair for several years, taking a leadership role in this women’s organization  (Gwen Moore Quotes) I know all about you. You’re the people waiting on the shoreline with the warm towels and the hot chocolate after the woman swims the English Channel  (Gwen Moore Quotes) We must encourage people to get educated, to get tested, to get involved in the fight against AIDS  (Gwen Moore Quotes) It is essential that the women’s preventive coverage benefit, including contraception, be available to all women, regardless of what health plan they have or where they work - as Congress intended. Providing access to birth control just makes good sense  (Gwen Moore Quotes) Governor Scott Walker didn’t know who he was messing with when he picked a fight with the hard-working union folks of Wisconsin. He must have forgotten that Wisconsin is the Badger State. And badgers are scrappy little creatures. We may look cute, warm and fuzzy, but we have a fighting spirit  (Gwen Moore Quotes) Violence against women is as American as apple pie. I know, not only as a legislator, but from personal experience  (Gwen Moore Quotes) I was once a welfare recipient and am very aware of the successes and failures of this critical safety net. There are those that would have us believe that those receiving TANF benefits are lazy, shiftless, freeloaders who are just sitting around thinking of another way to suckle from the government teat  (Gwen Moore Quotes) As a former recipient of these services I can honestly say that the overwhelming majority of TANF recipients are hard-working Americans who are down on their luck, and just want an opportunity to better their lives and those of their family through work and access to education  (Gwen Moore Quotes) These same people who accuse Planned Parenthood of ‘targeting’ African-American children, they care about you only while you’re in the womb. The minute you crown, you’re on your own.  (Gwen Moore Quotes) As legislators and as Members of Congress, it is our obligation to speak up for those who are being ignored in our society. The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) does just that.  (Gwen Moore Quotes) There’s a huge cost in being bipartisan, a tradition started by Newt Gingrich when he took over the House in 1994 and has continued forward, that you dare not vote against the Republican Party even if you’re voting against your own initiatives and your own interests.  (Gwen Moore Quotes) I know all about you. You’re the people waiting on the shoreline with the warm towels and the hot chocolate after the woman swims the English Channel.  (Gwen Moore Quotes) Too many people feel that where you start out dictates where you should end up. I was on welfare and just shy of 19 when my first daughter was born, but I was encouraged to take advantage of my ability and drive and remained in school  (Gwen Moore Quotes) When elected officials abandon our environment and ruin our natural resources, public health is endangered. I know the importance of providing a clean environment for our children; I have attended more than one funeral for a child who has died from an asthma attack  (Gwen Moore Quotes) Over 13 percent of women in college have reported being a victim of stalking during the school year, and one out of every five college women has reported being sexually assaulted. It is simple to talk about statistics. It is more difficult to remember that each number is a victim and represents a daughter, a sister or a friend  (Gwen Moore Quotes)
