ABOUT US
​
NWPC LA Metro is your local caucus of the National Women's Political Caucus (established 1971).
Following the failure of the ERA, NWPC's founders - including Gloria Steinem, Bella Abzug, and Shirley Chisholm - realized there would never be equality under the law until women were equally represented in legislative chambers, making the laws.
​
​
The early days of NWPC are beautifully dramatized in Dahvi Waller's "Mrs. America."

At NWPC LA Metro, we fight to elect pro-choice, pro-ERA women to all levels of government. We actively recruit women all across our region to run for office - and then we help prepare them to run, and work to elect them when they do.
