Message with Patriotism, In-Group Care, Compassion, and Empathy values highlighted. I was in the military when I had my first child. I got 12 weeks paid leave to recover and bond with my son. After I left the service, I started working for a company in my hometown that didn't offer paid leave. When I had my second child, I had no choice. I had to leave my baby at one week old so we could keep a roof over our heads. Separating a mother and child at birth like that is dishonorable. America is better than that. That's why I support the government passing paid family leave.

Applying Principles of Neuroscience and Behavioral Psychology

Understanding how the brain works is a critical aspect of effective persuasion. Did you know scientists estimate 40-90% of everything we do is unconscious? At the heart of our strategy is a scientific understanding that much of our civic behavior—how we respond to political ads, which policies we support—is driven not by conscious decision-making, but by deeply held values, neuroscience, and behavioral psychology. We’ve partnered with the scientists at Mindbridge to share these lessons with an emphasis on practical application.
