i also like to put a finer point on the women that we just heard from, malia cohen is running to be the state controller of the 5th large est economy in the world, the chief financial officer of california. she will be on the ballot this november. we are very proud of a daughter of san francisco who is running this year. they say struggle is a never ending process and freedom is never really won. you earn it and you win it in every generation. those were the words of the king. as we stand on the eve of women equality day and the anniversary of the 19th amendment, let us remember that our calling at this time and this moment is to secure freedom for ourselves and for others and then pass them along to generations to come.
