State Moms Forces
MomsRising State Mom Forces (SMFs) are bringing together our supporters in homes, at parks, at malls, in state capitols-- building MOMentum for change! SMFs work in targeted states to organize women, moms, and families on issues that matter most to them at a state and local level, as well as for our national campaigns. Get involved in your local SMF!
When you do, you might find yourself:
- at a parent meetup, talking about paid family and medical leave and paid sick days
- at a gathering at a public mall, talking with state and federal elected leaders about equal pay
- bringing kids along on a trip to the state capitol, delivering petitions signatures and seed packets to legislators to say that policies like quality affordable childcare and the EITC help kids grow strong
- holding a party at a mall with thousands of others for Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's birthday
- joining a tweetchat about voter registration in your state
- and so much more!
There are so many ways to be involved with MomsRising and to make a measurable impact for women, moms, and families locally. Visit this page often to check out new opportunities!

Take Action
Under current law, nearly half of Washington workers who are eligible for paid leave are not guaranteed their job back if they take leave. Accessing paid leave could not only result in being fired, but could also cause workers to lose access to healthcare at a time when they or their family need it the most. House Bill 1213 would fix that.
SIGN our letter calling on Republican leadership, along with every member of the U.S. Congress, to prioritize families over billionaires—no tax cuts for billionaires and corporations paid for by cuts to our health care, nutrition, education, and childcare.
Join us in thanking the Senator for his bravery and sending a message of support.
