Making #Herstory with Ailina Carona: How the intersection of motherhood and politics led her to run

We are back in Tennessee for this episode to talk about "The Year of the Mom" with Ailina Carona - one of three moms in the state who banded together to run in their districts to better protect children in their communities. While she didn't plan to be a politician, after a school shooting happened less than 30 miles from her home and continued efforts to take away women's bodily autonomy, Ailina was motivated to throw her hat in the ring. She is currently running for House District 57 and took the time to chat about her experiences as a Hispanic woman, mom, and non-politician (she's a permanent make-up artist!) running for office.  Sound Editor: Jaxon Winters Copyright info: Fox 11 Los Angeles (2024, July 26). Jennifer Aniston slams JD Vance's 'childless cat ladies' comment [Video]. ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDN4SmElOtk Global News (2023, March 27). Nashville school shooting: 3 students and 3 adults killed, police say.
