Happy Working Mothers Day to all the Hard. Working Mothers who must balance their working lives with caring and providing for the children they love so much.
Though it might not happen for another few years, we cannot stop fighting for free, universal childcare for working people as exists in every other western civilized society in the world. Working Moms please enjoy your day!
