Sexism in California Politics
Has it always been this bad? Will it ever get better?
Please join WIL for a discussion of sexism in California politics with very special guests Sherry Bebitch Jeffe, Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris and Supervisor Katrina Foley!
Sexism remains a major obstacle on women's path to political office, including right here in forward-thinking California. Has it always been this bad? Will it get better or worse as more women run for office? What else can be done to address the problem?
We're incredibly lucky to be joined for a discussion of these questions and more by nationally-renowned political expert Sherry Bebitch Jeffe and Orange County trailblazers Cottie Petrie-Norris and Katrina Foley.
You won't want to miss this event! Admission is free, but donations are always welcome and will always to go supporting women who support reproductive freedom.
