Women of color seen as huge potential vote in November — here’s why they’re motivated

A FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND national poll by Intersections Of Our Lives showed remarkable agreement between all women of color (Latina, Black & AAPI) on their priorities heading into this year’s election. Women of color, including Indian American women, are united in their priorities about issues like economic security/opportunity, reproductive justice, and abortion rights. They all agree that policymakers must do better. 

57 percent of Latinx women, 55 percent of the AAPI, and 49 percent of Black women think things have become worse in the country over the past year. They also feel like their values and voices are not heard or represented by the political leaders.
