Encompassing women legislators' viewpoints from both the Senate and the House of Representatives, the Women's Legislative Caucus of the State of Hawai'i was established over 20 years ago to advocate bills on behalf of the women of the state of Hawai'i. Through a careful voting and selection process, those bills that pass more than 75% of the WLC members' votes are added to the Caucus' official package, which has, in previous years, included subjects such as human trafficking, health, domestic abuse, and education. In addition to proposing potential future legislation, the members of the Women's Legislative Caucus further their mission through community outreach. The legislators demonstrate their support for community organizations by hosting events, like the Easter Basket drive held every year, in which both communities and organizations are benefited. Through its existence, the Women's Legislative Caucus strives to assist women on both a legislative and community level. The members of the WLC will further work together to promote the interest of Hawaii's women and improve the overall quality of life here in Hawaii.
