Thanks for highlighting Sen. Gallego's comments, I hadn't seen those. Yes, Rep. Pat Ryan, Sen. Murphy, and Gov. Moore have made so positive statements regarding Democrats' need to better focus on male well-being.

I believe the DNC itself needs to prioritize this with a National Task Force on Men -- see my open letter to the DNC here: https://menandthe2024election.substack.com/p/dear-dnc-create-a-national-task-force

Men in America need a party that supports them as whole people. Democrats want men to be allies and sidekicks but afraid to give them the limelight, fearing it will erode their trust with minorities, women and the queer community.

Republicans acknowledge the existence of men but fail to give the full respect they deserve. The right continues to cut medical coverage, unions, and social safety nets telling men they are only what they produce (for the top 1%) not who they are.

Men deserve better. They aren’t a different species. We are all human, and we all deserve respect and to be known.
