This report examines how the women in the 103rd Congress acted to shape the content of legislation, to build support for bills, and to create a political environment in which they could effect change. The research focuses on five policy areas in which there was substantial legislative action during the 103rd Congress: women's health, reproductive rights, health care reform, the Omnibus Crime Bill, and the North American Free Trade Agreement.
