and i had grown up as a teen in the 1980s, when an organisation in america called mothers against drunk drivinge so influential in our society and our communities and really changed the culture of driving while drinking, seemingly overnight. it did take them a decade to pass federal laws, but very instantaneously, it was thought of as immoral if you drank and drove. and so that was really my north star when i started moms demand action, i really knew that the only thing that could take on the most powerful, wealthy, special interests that had ever existed in our country was really an army of angry mothers. and that's what i set out to create. and today, moms demand action is the largest grassroots women—led movement in the nation. now, in the last year or more, you've stepped away from leadership of moms demand action, and you talk very publicly about the need to make more time and space for yourself and for your family. and yet now, here we are. and one reason we're interviewing you today is because you've stepped right back into the arena and you've just done something pretty extraordinary. y
