Pennsylvania Commission for Women

April 28, 2008

 Whereas, over 50 percent of the population of Pennsylvania is female; and

 Whereas, the need for a strong advocate for the rights of women in all areas of the Commonwealth is no less today than it was upon creation of the Pennsylvania Commission for Women more than a quarter of a century ago; and

 Whereas, further measures should be taken to increase state efforts to ensure that women have full and equal opportunity to serve in every capacity as citizens of the Commonwealth, free of gender discrimination; and

 Whereas, women must be informed, educated and advised so that they might better protect themselves, their families and their children.

 Now, Therefore, I, Edward G. Rendell, Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and other laws, do hereby reestablish the Pennsylvania Commission for Women (hereinafter referred to as ''Commission'') to perform the powers, duties, and functions set forth herein.
