Take Action on Legislation in Congress

AAUW's advocacy tools make it easy for you to keep informed on the latest legislative issues affecting women and families and to make your voice heard on Capitol Hill.

With AAUW's Two-Minute Activist, it takes just two minutes to make a difference -- one minute to read, one minute to act.

AAUW sends out timely Action Alerts by email to members who have provided AAUW headquarters with their email address. These alerts provide information about congressional actions that impact women and families. Sign up here to join the AAUW's Action Network.

Download AAUW Fact Sheets and Position Papers on a number of issues crucial to education and equity for women and girls. These fact sheets contain background information and talking points to help you to communicate effectively with Legislators.
