“Geraldine Ferraro was a trailblazer who paved the way for me and countless other women in government and politics. She was an unrelenting fighter for her constituents but also a loyal and caring friend to those who knew her personally. She told me to fight hard and not worry what other people say. Watching her made me feel like anything could be possible. Her legacy will live on to inspire the next generation of women leaders.”
