POWERFUL WOMEN LEADERS

Representative Ilhan Omar

“I think that with every single conversation that I have, and even I think that all the criticisms and backlash, that I feel are rewarding because I know that it allows me to challenge those narratives and allows me to have a conversation about that particular thing someone is criticizing me for. And I know that in that fight to change that narrative that it’s not only about me but it’s about millions of people who share one of the identities that I carry that might be under attack at that particular moment.”

City Attorney Mara Elliott

“I love being the problem solver in the room, not the obstacle. When you’re in public service you identify what’s going to make your community better, and you can put all your energy to try and find that solution.”
