At the start of remarks captured by actress Nicole Ari Parker, who posted about her experience at the Saturday bash, the vice president described the attendees as a “phenomenal group of women” before getting into her support for expanded parental leave access.
“Everybody is hanging out together and it feels very casual, but this is a powerful group of people,” she told the crowd.
