Letter to the Candidates: What Will You Do to End Harsh Realities for Women Worldwide? Print

Dear U.S. Presidential Candidates, 

Women have taken center stage in this year's race for the next President of the United States. We're not just talking about Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton-increasingly, election coverage has focused on women's roles in national security and foreign policy, the importance of the women voters, and debates over what constitutes sexism.

But to a large extent, what has been absent from campaign coverage, and what we will be looking for in tonight's debate on foreign policy, is a meaningful discussion about what each candidate would do to empower women, in the United States and abroad, to exercise their right to a just and healthy life.
