How have Espinal, Rozic, and De La Rosa experienced being women in politics?
The three members shared similar experiences of not receiving the same level of respect as their male counterparts. Espinal mentioned being asked who she works for, even though she is a New York State Assembly member representing her district. Rozic recalled being asked if she was old enough to vote for herself. However, in January 2019, women will be filling the elected seats in Espinals district that were previously held only by men.
