Retired Senator Debbie Stabenow on Using Your Voice
from Add Passion and Stir
Retired Senator Debbie Stabenow discusses the importance of strong leadership, raising our voices about what we believe is wrong, and her continued advocacy for issues like hunger and mental health. “I may have retired, but I have not retired my voice. At this time, where so much is at stake, nobody should be retiring their voice,” she says. “We should be electing people that show some leadership,” she continues. “Hunger is pretty basic. This should be a moral issue for all of us. It's a moral issue. It's an economic issue. It's a national security issue. It's about health and well-being.” Host Billy Shore shares her sentiments. “My mantra has been to be civil but not silent. I think there's a way to talk about these things, but we've got to get people over the fear of speaking up about what they believe in,” he states.
