Debbie Georgatos is a lawyer, political consultant, conservative activist and author, whose first book, Ladies, Can We Talk? America Needs Our Vote! encourages women to embrace liberty-upholding conservative solutions to the challenges America faces. Her book and book talks inspire women to step up and take a prominent leadership role in the American political conversation, and to recognize that they have tremendous power to shape America’s future. Debbie brings to America’s political dialogue a unique mix of lawyerly logic, patriotic passion, and a friendly and personal tone, and she proves in a variety of policy arenas that women, and all people, fare better under free-market and limited government solutions to all of the challenges America faces. She connects the dots between the “big government will take care of everything” politics of the American Left, and the crushing of individual opportunity, incentive, achievement and ultimately, happiness.
