This report examines gender differences between state legislators in their policy views, actions, and perspectives on the legislative process. Based on surveys of a national sample of state legislators, the research shows women's increased presence in state legislatures has had an impact, and this impact is evident regardless of party, ideology, feminist identification, constituency ideology, seniority, age, or political insider status.
