At 51% of the population, women are only 25% of elected higher officials. This disparity is not good for the health and welfare of the country as a whole. It is not good for an individual woman's sense of self-worth. It is not good for a young girl's view of her ability to access opportunities and resources of the society. More political clout would result in more likelihood of equal pay for equal work. More female participation in the political process could yield a fortification of women and girls’ sense of identity and self-actualization. So, consider getting more involved. Volunteer at your local agencies or political party. Encourage other women to do the same. Consider running for something. If already in office, consider reaching for higher office. The country needs you.
