Rep. Patricia Schroeder vowed yesterday (Sep. 5, 1994) to introduce legislation to ensure that the program adopted at the UN's population conference is carried out in US government policy. Mrs. Schroeder, a Colorado Democrat, told a news conference that legislators meeting on the side of the UN conference were concerned that the Program of Action would not be translated into concrete steps to improve the lot of women. "We want to organize and stay organized after this document is done to be sure there is follow-through," Mrs. Schroeder says. Mrs. Schroeder said that the Caucus for Women's Issues in the US Congress, which she co-chairs, was working on legislative proposals for introduction before adjournment. Rep. Constance A. Morella, a Republican from Maryland, joined Mrs. Schroeder in the call for legislation. She said the world's lawmakers at the conference were looking "beyond Cairo" and that it was important to increase funding for programs to improve the status. |
