Women's Rights Are Human Rights
There’s still time to tell Congress to support CEDAW — send an e-mail to your senators today!
This International Women's Day, we affirm our commitment to work toward achieving legal, social, political, and economic equality for women around the world. And we call upon U.S. policy makers to do the same by ratifying the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW).
Thousands of our members from 25 states have signed postcards and petitions in support of this important treaty. On March 8, 2012 — International Women's Day — I will be delivering your message to Senator John Kerry's office. I can't wait!
At UUSC, we believe that achieving gender equality is fundamental to achieving universal human rights. To do this, we believe that the ratification of CEDAW by the United States — a global leader in standing up for women and girls around the world — is essential.
Thank you for speaking up for this important issue — and please keep up the good work!
