		<description><![CDATA[With the biggest legal battle over the President’s health care law settled, its time to end the political wrangling and start educating the American people about the benefits of the Affordable Care Act. Many who oppose the law are unclear about what’s in it. The law provides real, tangible benefits for everyone, but women stand to gain the most from the Affordable Care Act. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, women make 80 percent of all personal and family health care decisions. Women use more health care services than men, especially during their reproductive years, and as caregivers, often take the lead in coordinating care for family members. So it comes as no surprise that polls consistently show women overwhelmingly support the Affordable Care Act. Because of the Affordable Care Act, many of the 19 million women who are currently uninsured will have access to the care that they need. Lifetime limits have been eliminated so women won’t lose coverage when facing breast cancer or other life-threatening conditions. And with subsidies for individuals and families that lack employer-sponsored health insurance as well as new rules that prohibit charging women more than men, more women across all socioeconomic backgrounds will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Featured on The Huffington Post: With resistance to President Obama&#8217;s health care law culminating with the Supreme Court deciding the fate of the most important social policy since enactment of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965, the failure to win popular support for health care will be studied for many years to come. Racism has clearly emerged as a significant factor underlying opposition to the law and must be examined as part of any honest attempt at understanding how some Americans formed opinions about the Affordable Care Act. For twenty years, the majority of Americans favored reforming the health care system. However, unlike during former President Clinton&#8217;s reform efforts in the early 1990s, support for the Affordable Care Act was not only sharply divided along ideological grounds, but by race as well. Former President Carter sparked a national debate with his September 2009 comments noting that racism was partly motivating tea party activists who staged widely-covered angry outbursts at town hall meetings hosted by members of Congress and anti-government protests that featured racially offensive signs denouncing Obama and the health care bill. While President Obama refuted Carter&#8217;s claims, questions about the role of race continued. Indeed, in November 2009, 54 percent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cross-posted on The Huffington Post and Politic365 Passing the Affordable Care Act was no easy feat. The legislative and political battle over health reform was sharply drawn along ideological lines. After months of political wrangling and Tea Party protests that underscored fundamental differences on the role of government, the public option was off the table and anti-choice legislators nearly torpedoed the entire bill. This week in what some have called the ultimate showdown on &#8220;Obamacare,&#8221; the Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments on the constitutionality of the individual mandate and Medicaid expansion under ACA. The high court&#8217;s ruling, if it issues one at all, could strike down the entire law, which is already being implemented in 49 states. So how did we arrive at this crossroad? For more than a century, Democratic presidents and progressive activists have sought to implement reforms to the nation&#8217;s health care system. The last major attempt by former President Bill Clinton was handily defeated by Republicans, leaving many disillusioned by the inability to achieve large-scale reform. While some argue that ACA does not go far enough in increasing competition in the marketplace or reducing health care costs, President Obama, in his first year of office, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This post also appears on The Huffington Post Steve Jobs dramatically changed the media landscape with pioneering products that will forever change the way news is consumed and distributed. As I prepare to moderate a panel next week on news and media trends at the National Press Club, I&#8217;m pondering the disruptive changes to the field, especially with Jobs&#8217; death. I&#8217;m looking forward to delving into the topic with the journalists on the panel. In advance of that discussion, here are some thoughts from around the web on Job&#8217;s impact on journalism. First, President Obama noting how many likely received news of Jobs&#8217; death via an Apple product: The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve&#8217;s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented. The iPod has been credited for saving the music business and Jobs believed that Apple products could give journalism a much needed shot in the arm. &#8220;I believe people are willing to pay for content. I believe in media, and in news content,&#8221; Jobs said. On The Poytner Institute blog, Jeff Sonderman writes about how Jobs changed, but did [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night Washington Women in Public Relations (WWPR) honored me with one of three 2011 Emerging Leaders Awards (ELA) given to rising stars, ages 21-35, in the public relations and communications industry. PR and communications professionals often work behind the scenes and don&#8217;t expect public acknowledgement for our work. So its a special treat to be recognized publicly for my contributions. Communications is a passion and calling for me. It’s through this work that I am able to articulate the value of policies and programs that make a difference in people’s lives. And so I am grateful that clients and colleagues trust me with communicating the value of their causes and with helping to give voice to their issues and priorities. Without them, I would not have the honor of receiving WWPR&#8217;s award. I&#8217;m wrapping up my last week at Stanford University&#8217;s Summer Institute in Political Psychology in Palo Alto, CA, so I missed the awards reception but hear it was a fabulous event. ABC7/WJLA-TV reporter Jennifer Donelan was a featured speaker. Other honorees included Jennifer Mastin Giglio, VP External Relations, Ogilvy Washington and Tara Silver, Managing Director, Silver Strategy. WWPR is the first and only D.C. based professional organization [...]]]></description>
