This Elected Woman Advocated Her Way From Patient to Policymaker

Welcome to Elected Women Across America, a podcast brought to you by the National Foundation for Women Legislators and featuring elected women with common goals to exchange legislative ideas and reach across the aisle. Hosted by Brenna Kehew Sculley, this podcast provides a direct line to the leaders that the organization empowers. 

In this episode, Brenna sits down with Representative Kim Schofield of Georgia to hear how her lifelong advocacy for people living with lupus led her into public service, and how her own personal health journey has shaped her work as a legislator. Tune in to hear how Representative Schofield shares how living with chronic illness strengthened her voice and fueled bipartisan policy wins in healthcare and disability access. 

This episode features a special sponsored segment, where Brenna turns the mic over to Florida State Senator Gayle Harrell as she interviews Scott LaGanga, the Executive Vice President of State Advocacy at Pharma. Hear Scott and Senator Harrell dig into some key healthcare policy issues live from our annual conference.
