We are six decades into the women’s movement, yet the women in Iran are wondering why they are stuck in quicksand.

Iranian women are fighters and want to have the independence to make their own choices. Removing the hijab is a symbol of all the other rights and freedoms that are missing in their lives.

If we all take a minute and think about what’s happening in Iran, we realize the incredible bravery of Iranian women. 

We need the United State Congress to acknowledge this bravery and lend their support.
