THIRD READING
Bill No: SR 79
Introduced: 2/25/20
SUBJECT: Women’s History Month
DIGEST:
This resolution urges all Californians to join in celebrating the contributions of women and proclaims the month of March 2020 as Women’s History Month.
ANALYSIS: This resolution makes the following legislative findings:
- American women of every culture, class, and ethnic background have participated in the founding and building of our nation, made historic contributions to the growth and strength of our nation, and played a critical role in shaping the economic, cultural, and social fabric of our society, not in the least of ways through their participation in the labor force, working both inside and outside the home.
- Women have been leaders in every movement for social change, including their own movement for suffrage and equal rights, the fight for emancipation, the struggle to organize labor unions, and the Civil Rights Movement, as well as leading the call for peace and organizing to preserve the environment.
- In light of these efforts and the achievements of all American women, we take this opportunity to honor women and their contributions to the development of our society and our world.
- The celebration of Women’s History Month will provide an opportunity for schools and communities to focus attention on the historical role and accomplishments of the women of California and the United States and for students, in particular, to benefit from an awareness of these contributions.
This resolution urges all Californians to join in celebrating the contributions of women and proclaims the month of March 2020 as Women’s History Month.
