Watch This: Momonomics

Aug 22, 2024 | Easy A, Momonomics

In the past few weeks, Senator Elizabeth Warren joined us to discuss the economic threat of Project 2025, and financial advisor Shereen Boyer joined us for an “Ask Me Anything” event about the economy. More than 12,000 of you showed up for these two events! Wow.

We know how beloved these esteemed guests are, but this level of energy and attendance also proves something else we know — the economy is top of mind for suburban women.

We got rave reviews from both events because Shereen and Sen. Warren shared helpful, factual information about the current state of our economy in easy to understand ways. They also talked about what policy makers can do to improve the financial conditions of average Americans.

For example, watch this one-minute video of Shereen Boyer explaining why we are still seeing high prices for everyday goods like groceries, and how government policies could help us address the issue.

This is what Momonomics is all about! Giving you all the information you need to confidently talk about the economy with your friends and family.

If you’d like to dig in deeper to this week’s Easy A, you can find the full recordings of both recent events in our Momonomics playlist on our YouTube channel. Next week, we’ll help you share this important information with everyone you know!
