We are excited to have Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney on The Style That Binds Us podcast! Carolyn was the first woman to represent New York City's 7th Council district (where she was the first woman to give birth while in office). She was also the first woman to chair the Joint Economic Committee. She became the first woman to chair the House Committee on Oversight and Reform. She was the first to offer a comprehensive package of legislation to make day care more available and affordable. She introduced a bill to establish Permanent Authorization of the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund Act which was signed into law; she advocated to provide Medicare coverage for annual mammograms. Congresswoman Maloney has introduced and advocated for legislation regarding issues such as sexual assaults, sex trafficking, women’s rights and childcare to name a few; she played a role in getting an American Women’s History Museum on the National Mall and is advocating for the Equal Rights Amendment.
