At THINX, 2017 is going to be a year of action, and we'd love for you to join us in our mission to stay vocal and active in championing women's rights. We're kicking things off today with our #FloodThePhones event. We're calling every single GOP woman in the House (trust us, we're not kidding) and expressing our concerns. If you'd like to join us at home, you can follow along with our script below!

Let's do this, y'all.
