HuffPost Live host, Caroline Modaressey-Tehrani and I discuss the #SOTU from a feminist perspective.

Politicos across Washington, DC were glued to their TVs as President Obama “an ambitious” State of the Union address Tuesday night.

While he spoke about tax reform, a new middle class, and gas pipelines of course feminists were focusing on whether or not Obama would raise the issues that really matter, ie paid maternity leave, equal pay, and affordable child care to name a few.

Overall, I was pleased that Obama touched upon key feminist issues in the State of the Union.
