This resolution officially states that the Senate supports the goals of International Women's Day. It honors women activists and leaders who fight for equality and human rights around the world, specifically mentioning those standing up against oppression in Ukraine, Iran, and Afghanistan.
The resolution highlights serious global problems, such as the fact that 1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual violence and 12 million girls are married before they turn 18 every single year. It also notes that 122 million girls are currently out of school worldwide.
It points out that the U.S. considers the empowerment of women a major part of its foreign policy. Research shows that when women are involved in peace talks, agreements are 35% more likely to last at least 15 years, and countries with more equality tend to be more stable and prosperous.
The Senate reaffirms its commitment to ending discrimination and violence against women. It encourages the American people to observe International Women's Day with programs and activities that celebrate the achievements of women and recognize the obstacles they still face.
