Lena's always been very vocal about being pro-women. She's teamed up with Planned Parenthood Action Fund's 'Women Are Watching' campaign to urge every female to empower themselves by going out and voting on November 4th.
“When you show up to the polls, you empower yourself, you empower the women you love, and you take control of your own body back from politicians who don’t want the best for you,” she says in the video. See what else she had to say:
Also in the campaign, Lena and Planned Parenthood are selling some special t-shirts to help encourage women to vote! Some of Lena's famous friends have taken selfies wearing the special signature edition "Lena <3 Planned Parenthood" shirt:
