Speaking at the Democratic National Convention Tuesday evening at 7:10 p.m.Ohio's Joyce Beatty made the following remarks touting women fueling the American economy and movingAmericaforward

"I’m Joyce Beatty and I’m running for Congress from the great state ofOhioto moveAmericaforward.

Moving America forward means higher education that’s affordable and prepares our young people to lead in the 21st century economy.

Moving America forward means affordable health care and equal pay for equal work. And to unleash the power of moms in the economy, it means quality, affordable child care.

We will move America forward on behalf of you – your families and communities, your aspirations, and your hopes for your children. That’s because America’s success is dependent on the success of women – in education, in business, in the military, and in public service.

Women will lead us to victory – for strong Democratic majorities in Congress and to re-elect Vice-President Joe Biden and President Barack Obama. The Democratic women of the House are ready to move America forward."
