26 Impact of Women in Politics 26
27 Symbolic Representation Seeing women in politics may increase political interest among women & girls Descriptive representation can mobilize women to run for office 27
28 Women in Office Women officeholders of both parties are more likely to advance women s issues Women legislators are often more involved in constituent casework Women legislators often have a higher success rate at passing legislation Also secure more funding for their district 28
29 Legislative Leadership Styles Women tend to emphasize collegiately and collaboration Women legislators also tend to include more people in the policymaking process 29
30 Women in Government: Policy Impact Women in Congress have played key roles in enacting laws for women: Title IX Equal Credit Opportunity Act Family and Medical Leave Act Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 Women key to ending 2013 government shutdown 30
31 Addressing Barriers Facing Women in Politics 31
32 Addressing These Barriers: Structural Groups recruiting, training, and supporting diverse candidates Institutional & electoral reforms Social change 32
33 Addressing These Barriers: Candidates Encourage women to seek leadership positions Consider range of opportunities Utilize networks Ask broadly for support 33

35 2018 Midterm Elections Large increase in the number of women running for elected office Still far below men Increases mainly in Democratic Party 35
36 CAWP
37 37
38 2018 Midterm Elections If election is a good year for Democrats, likely to have a more diverse set of officeholders But many women running in 2018 will ultimately lose May have spillover benefits in the future 38
39 Final Thoughts 39
40 Women and Politics Women have made great strides in politics But still constitute less than ¼ of all officeholders in most levels of government Need women leaders because they bring different perspectives Lots of opportunities 40
