Throughout the month of March for Women’s History month, The Takeaway is joining forces with the Center for American Women and Politics to bring you stories of Women Leading Locally.

We spoke with Representative Anna Eskamani, Representative for the 47th District in Orlando, Florida about her family, what it's like to be a progressive in Florida, and how she is fighting to protect her constituents against conservative laws such as reproductive rights restrictions and Don’t Say Gay laws in Florida.
