Women's issues should be put in the right committee.

The Issue

We are calling on the Speaker to never submit a women's issue into any committee that is not directly related to its issue.
Please join with When Sleeping Women Wake. Mountains Move in calling on the leaders of the Illinois State Legislature that matters affecting women’s health be assigned to more appropriate committees with the expertise to understand and appreciate women’s health issues.Recently, two bills affecting women’s health and health services were assigned to the Agriculture Committee of the Illinois House of Representatives. As a matter of respect to all women in Illinois, a women’s health issue has no place in the Agriculture Committee.
