Join the campaign #WomenNotObjects to fight against the objectification of women in advertising
A very powerful add, though I can’t ignore the last statement. The phrasing, “I am your mother/sister/coworker/etc.,” or “She is someone’s mother/sister/etc.,” is saying that a woman must be attached to someone (a man) in order to be empathized with or even relevant/ of value. Instead, the statement should say, “I am someone,” “She is someone,” or “I am a human being.”

I very recently learned that I have breast cancer.
I very recently learned that I have breast cancer. It was detected through a regular mammogram. It’s a little scary, but my prognosis is good and I expect a full recovery. I will be in St Louis for the next 3 weeks receiving treatment. During this time my staff will continue to assist Missourians and I will be posting on my Senate website (McCaskill.senate.gov) how I would have voted on any matters that come before the Senate during my absence—which I’ll also enter into the Congressional record. Additionally, I’ll be submitting questions in writing for any missed Senate hearings.
Thank you for the honor of serving you in the Senate.
Life if fragile; appreciate your heroes.
