Intro: Hi there! I'm coming to the end of my 11 years as president of EMILY's List an organization created to help elect Democratic pro-choice women, and I wrote a book about some of the amazing women we've helped elect and the lessons we've used to help women run and win around the country (You can buy that book at bookshop.org I love to talk to people about how they can make change in the world, but I REALLY love to talk women into thinking about running for office. I'd love to answer your questions about our book, the amazing women I've gotten to work with through the years and why we need more women in office.

EDIT: Thanks for all your questions! This AMA is now complete.
