<H2>Looking Ahead: Our Post Election Wrap Up</H2>
The 2016 election season has been a nail biter and will probably go down as one of the most unusual in American history. Women's issues remained at the forefront, with many conversations held around equal pay and gender equality. As we look past Election Day, what's next for women, leadership, and the policies that affect us.
Join us on Wednesday, November 9th at 6:30 pm ET when we chat with a few surprise guests who will tackle these questions and more.  Sign up now.
