Sometimes the easiest way to find news is to stop seeking it and, instead, let it come to you. That’s my approach to gathering the latest news, op-eds and articles related to women in government.
I’ll be honest. If I mention an article in any GovFem post, chances are I found it between the hours of 9am and 10am while I was running through my morning emails. That’s because I subscribe to a ton of newsletters that aggregate the best of the internet and deliver it to my inbox. It saves me a ton of time and keeps me up-to-date on the latest.
