About
To move toward its vision of a nation without barriers based on gender, the Center has worked for more than three decades to expand, defend and promote women’s rights at every stage of the legal process — when legislatures are drafting or amending bills, when the executive branch and its agencies are writing regulations to enforce statutes, and when the courts are interpreting laws.
