On March 12 State Rep. Themis Klarides (R‑114) spoke to more than 150 women and elected leaders at “Women’s Day at the Capitol,” hosted annually by the Permanent Commission on the Status of Women (PCSW).
The day-long forum aims to bring women’s issues to the forefront as groups from across the state talk with legislators about policy impacting women and families.
Rep. Klarides, who is the highest ranking female Republican in the House of Representatives, told the group she is hopeful we will continue to create opportunities for underrepresented groups while striving toward a society that recognizes achievement irrespective of gender.
