Legislative Activism

 

Since its inception in 1890, the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) has been a beacon of community-driven activism, uniting its members to address national and global concerns. Over the decades, dedicated groups of clubwomen, acting as grassroots activists, have left an indelible mark on society. From rural outposts to bustling urban centers, these women have spurred men into action on matters of civic importance.

Central to our organization’s history is the process of introducing and supporting legislation through resolutions. Through this method, GFWC has effectively championed various causes, shaping legislative agendas and impacting policy decisions.

Our Impact

 

In our illustrious history, GFWC’s legislative strategy and our clubwomen’s advocacy have yielded significant accomplishments:

  • We have tirelessly campaigned for ordinances prohibiting the sale of objectionable literature, including materials promoting crime, sex, and horror, especially those accessible to children.
  • We have been vocal advocates for equitable access to vaccinations on a global scale.
  • We have worked diligently to raise awareness and resources for the preservation of our national parks and the conservation of natural resources.
  • We have staunchly advocated for clean water and air in all communities.

As GFWC continues its successful trajectory of grassroots advocacy, we proudly highlight over 14,000 legislative actions aimed at prompting Congress to address crucial issues such as domestic violence, women’s suffrage, veterans’ rights, and vaccination initiatives, among others.
