AZ: Among Our Fantastic Democratic State Legislators, 30 Are Women.
ADLCC recently danced a little happy dance about our wonderful state legislators and highlighted that 30 of them (out of a total of 43) are women, in recognition of the final week of Womens History Month. I gotta say, that gave me great satisfaction. I have the pleasure of personal acquaintance with some of them, and they are inspiring and dynamic leaders. I hope that I can meet them all!
Myself, and all the authors here (including several wonderful women) certainly celebrate our Democratic women leaders, as well. That we also have many women governing as Democrats in our top state and county leadership roles (Governor Hobbs, Attorney General Mayes, Corporation Commissioner Tovar [who will be appearing at TheDGT.org meeting this coming Monday with Sandra Kennedy and Lauren Kuby], and Pima County Attorney Conover) is a point of pride and a source of confidence for so many of us.
I have opined in the past about the special advantages that the Democratic Partys commitment to fostering and supporting women in elected office conveys on us when I endorsed Yolanda Bejarano for ADP Chair. Ill reiterate those sentiments here:
