#Missouri ranked in 41st place as of March 2024. We look forward to updating this list annually. cawp.rutgers.edu/facts/levels-o… #MunicipalGovernment
Colorado leads the country with the most women holding municipal office at 46.1%, while the U.S. average is closer to 32.3%. The data is from @CAWP_RU latest report: cawp.rutgers.edu/facts/levels-o…
Congratulations to the city of Oak Grove, Missouri, as they made history last week electing an all-female Board of Aldermen and a female mayor. yahoo.com/news/historic-…
Congratulations to Paula Landoll-Smith and Suzan Barnes on their recent reappointments by Gov. @LauraKellyKS. With support from our Appointments Project, both women bring an important perspective to the Kansas community.
The Kansas House voted last week to establish a new state office dedicated to childcare. Although it still needs to pass through the Senate, it’s a step in the right direction to address the state’s childcare shortage.
SB 434 is headed to the Kansas Governor for approval to allow entrepreneurs to practice sugar hair removal without a cosmetology license. This bill helps facilitate individuals making a living without expensive and time-consuming licensing.
HB 2745 passed the KS House and Senate, and is headed to the Governor, @LauraKellyKS. The bill exempts military spouses of active military service members from occupational licensing, registration, and certification fees. This would support economic opportunities for more women.
I spoke with @KCURUpToDate on the #genderpaygap here in Kansas and Missouri. Despite progress being made, women who work full-time make just 84 cents on the dollar compared to non-Hispanic, white men in the same roles. Listen to the podcast here: bit.ly/3x83TML
@UnitedWeEmpower released findings from the FIRST national study of women's representation on local appointed boards and commissions. The research confirms that boards and commissions nationwide do not reflect the diversity of the communities served. bit.ly/43q6NZ6

United WE Board of Directors Chair, Joan Ruff, will testify in support of House Bill 2818 today. United WE aims to facilitate individuals' pursuit of their chosen professions, without unnecessary burden or governmental red tape. united-we.org/news/2024/3/12…
United WE will host a virtual research release on March 20 to present the first-of-its-kind national study on women’s representation on local appointed boards. Learn more and RSVP: united-we.org/events/2024/3/…
Thank you to @ChiefExecBear @DrSamPage and @UnitedWeEmpower for hosting a wonderful event at @delmardivine tonight where I presented research on gender and racial parity on civic boards and commissions that I coauthored with @kimballdc @SapnaVarkey and @shawpolisci
A huge win for Kansas City and women everywhere. We can't wait @thekccurrent!

What drew me to @UnitedWeEmpower, was its mission to advance all women’s economic and civic leadership to make meaningful change. During #WomensHistoryMonth, United WE will recognize women who have paved the way in fulfilling this important cause.

Policing in Kansas City is governed by the Board of Police Commissioners. Four of five members are appointed by the governor. I thank him for selecting a strong leader in my friend Madeline Romious of AT&T. I look forward to working with her in building a safer Kansas City.
Congrats to @RamonaFarrisKC for being appointed to the Municipal Officials & Officers Ethics Commission in Kansas City, Missouri by @MayorLucasKC. With support from our Appointments Project, Ramona brings an important voice to the Kansas City community.
What started as a celebration for Kansas City, turned into a senseless act of violence yesterday. We grieve for the families impacted & the local community. We commend the city's first responders & local law enforcement for their swift action. #KCStrong
