Here's the latest from @ScagliaSteph, @alissashaw_ & @RepresentWomen analyzing what political reforms are necessary to elect more women. #ProportionalRepresentation is top of list. Women still have < 30% of Congress, yet are > 50% of the US population. democracysos.substack.com/p/creating-gen…

Another example like New York, NY and Las Cruces, NM of how #RankedChoiceVoting (RCV) helps remove barriers for female candidates. When those barriers are removed they tend to win. Check out the work of our friends and colleagues @RepresentWomen for more. representwomen.app.box.com/s/jzs9ycq8i3oo…

Spoiler alert: Most states are terrible. There is more work to do solidify fair representation & gender equality. And I’m going to keep working with awesome leaders like @melindagates @CynthiaRTerrell @RepresentWomen @KaseVirginia & others to address these inequities. Let’s go!

Who rides a bike in New York City? ➡️ More than 1.2 million New Yorkers ride a bike at least once a month. ➡️ Two-thirds of bike riders in New York City are people of color. ➡️ 3 in 4 bike riders live in the outer boroughs.

Key result in national poll: "One of the biggest takeaways was the consistent majority support for Ranked Choice Voting in all of its different potential applications. After deliberating, majorities of our sample consistently supported the use of RCV for all kinds of elections"

Check out @RepresentWomen’s 2023 #GenderParityIndex to see how well women are represented in your state‼️Two states earned an “A” grade this year but nearly half the states got a “D” or “F” for women’s representation — Maryland, with zero women in Congress, gets a “D” #2023GPI

Our democracy cannot truly function without parity and inclusive representation. As @melindafrenchgates has said “There are barriers to women running for office…we need to stop sending women to a broken system, and we need to change the system."

Check out the mapping of the state scores to their respective policies on how you easily (or not) can obtain your ballot in the mail. May not be cause and effect. But the correlation with better access = more women in the legislature is unmistakable.

Great study by Represent Women- representwomen.app.box.com/s/4wk2lmeerel1… Love seeing how making it easier to vote (like passing early voting law) & making it easier to run for office (like allowing campaign funds to be used for child care expenses) has helped RI make it into the top 10 states…

Steph's latest research shows that, beyond achieving descriptive representation, having more women on the @NYCCouncil has had a notable impact on legislation, internal practices, and leadership.
