Close the gap turns 10 this year!
Recruiting women to run WORKS.
Following California’s first Motherlode cycle in 2022, an all-time high of 50 women serve in the State Legislature, representing 42% of our legislators. This is nearly DOUBLE the number of women serving from when we started this project.
Our community’s investment has made a measurable impact over the past 10 years, but the next 5 will be make-or-break. Support our successful work to achieve gender parity in the California Legislature by chipping in $10 or $100 to commemorate our 10th anniversary!
