California's legislature will achieve a historic milestone as 49% of its members are women, moving one step closer to gender parity. This accomplishment reflects ongoing efforts for equitable political representation.
More than half of the female legislators in California come from Southern California, with significant representation from Orange County, highlighting a strategic push towards gender equity in politics.
Orange County reached gender parity in this legislative session, reflecting the demographic shift and the hard work of advocacy groups to recruit women into political power.
Assemblymember Sharon Quirk-Silva emphasizes that her experiences as a woman drive her to consider the impacts of legislation on women and working families.
