About this Petition Pledge

Give Women the Right to Own Their Own Home

Women do 66 percent of the world's work, but own less than 15 percent of the world's property. In many places, women cannot own or inherit property. This makes women more vulnerable to poverty, violence and HIV/AIDS. If we are going to make progress ending global poverty, we have to start with women.

The bipartisan Global Resources and Opportunity for Women to Thrive Act, if passed, would be a giant step forward.

Voice your support for this critical legislation as it moves through Congress today!
