Here are the #women — Senate aides — who had the presence of mind and courage to protect, keep safe, and transport the electoral votes before fleeing the Senate — which was under siege by domestic terrorists.
There will always be villains.
There will always be heroes.

Rep. Deb Haaland, President-elect Joe Biden’s pick for interior secretary, would be the first Native American Cabinet secretary if confirmed by the Senate.
“I’ll be fierce for all of us, for our planet and all of our protected land,” she says. https://cnn.it/3nvgsI6

President-elect Joe Biden has tapped Democratic Rep. Deb Haaland, a Native American congresswoman from New Mexico, to serve as interior secretary in a historic pick for a department that oversees the country's vast natural resources, including tribal lands.
Refusing to call a woman by her correct title and instead using a dismissive term to address her - we’ve all been there.

Thanks so much for the shout out, Deb Haaland for Congress! We are so proud of you and honored to call you one of our alumnae.
"She also credited Emerge New Mexico, an organization that provides political training programs for Democratic women who want to run for office. Haaland, who graduated from the program in 2007, said that Emerge New Mexico “has really done an amazing job in giving women candidates the courage and the confidence to get out there and run.'"

Emerge, a national organization focused on preparing progressive Democratic women for political campaigns, has trained some 4,000 women since its founding in 2002.
Emerge New Mexico has been one of its most successful branches. The group prepared 75 women to run for a range of offices in this year’s general election — and 61 of them won, said Alexandria Bazan, interim executive director.
Emerge New Mexico has been “building the bench for Democratic women for 14 years,” said Marianna Anaya, president of the organization’s board.
“Our Emerge women have spent years dedicating their lives to their communities,” she added. “These women have been educators, nurses, organizers, heads of businesses — so they have a real community connectedness. That’s why it is so empowering to see these women be born of the community and rise to the position of legislators.”
In a momentous shift, female lawmakers will hold a majority of seats, 37-33, in the state House of Representatives come January.
