Why women leaders matter...
Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP) research shows that political women change the public policy agenda and the way government works. Women make our democracy more inclusive and more responsive to the concerns of all citizens.
Why 2012 Is So Important?
Following the 2010 census, state legislative districts will be redrawn, creating new and open seats — and that means opportunities will open up all the way down the line. Newcomers fare best in races for open seats, making 2012 a great year for women to run and win!
