Sign the Petition for Secretary of State Clinton
The United Nations Foundation is circulating an online petition to both thank, and show support for, the work Secretary of State Clinton has been doing on behalf of women (and girls/children) rights worldwide. This is from the site:
Thank Secretary Clinton for Protecting Women’s Rights
Target: U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
Sponsored by: United Nations FoundationA nation’s economic health is directly impacted by the health, education and workforce opportunities of its women. Yet the current economic crisis is overshadowing critical discussions about women’s rights, putting women and girls worldwide at greater risk.
Fortunately, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton continues to champion women’s rights on an international stage, and has drawn much-needed attention and funding for family planning and reproductive health issues – both critical to women’s long-term success and welfare.
Under Secretary Clinton’s leadership, a new day is dawning for the world’s women and girls. The Administration has requested a considerable increase over last year’s assistance for family planning and reproductive health programs, overturned the Global Gag rule, and established the first Office for Women and Girls and an Office of Global Women’s Issues in the White House and State Department.
Again, you can sign the petition, here.












Its fun reading all the words of encouragement for Secy Clinton. One or two whachos inserted themselves in there too.
Yes, well, there will always be a few of them. The petition site is halfway to it’s goal!
