Senator Boxer to Chair Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Global Women's Issues
I read the article "Senator Boxer to Chair Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Global Women's Issues". In this article it talks about Senator Barbara Boxer's new position in chairing the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on International Operations and Organizations, Human Rights, Democracy, and Global Women's Issues. The article goes on to talk about how she will be able to focus her efforts on not only local women's issues, but global issues as well.
We want to believe that, in this day and time, women are treated equally to men. However, there are many nations in which women are tortured and remain treated as second class citizens.
I think that it is awsome that they are going to have someone working specifically for women's causes. So many things go overlooked in this world that can be prevented. Bringing the worlds attention to these issues could possibly lead to the elimination of them.
