Rep. Kerttula’s Juneau Newsletter: Women’s History Month
March 26, 2012
March is Women’s History Month, and on March 16, there was a fantastic lunch in honor of women legislators throughout Alaska’s history. Not only were current women legislators present, but also past women legislators and their families, along with the family members of women legislators who have passed on.

I felt much more empowered thinking of the strong women who came before me as well as those with whom I serve.
