This commission was created by our long-time supporter Linda Tarr-Whelan of the Center for Policy Alternatives. The meeting will serve as the first meeting of the commission as well as kick-off the Women's Voices for the Economy campaign the commission is undertaking. The mission of the campaign is to "unite women across race and class into a strong voice for a new economy" in a way that enable women to become fully involved in driving the country's economy forward. Included in this effort is educating women on the new economy that will come with job growth, improved education and retraining initiatives, higher minimum wage and the middle-class bill of rights. It would be a great honor for these women if the President would be able to drop by and greet them during their first meeting. It would also demonstrate the support you have for the role women play in the economy and the importance of the steps being taken to help the middle-class worker, especially the working women. The women attending this event are key women leaders from across the country. They are highly supportive of the administration and are invaluable for spreading the word on the administration's economic achievements to the far reaching and diverse women they influence by their work. The details are as follows: Date: Friday, February 27, 1994 Time: 2:00 - 3:00 pm Location: Room 450 Old Executive Office Building Participants: 50 leaders of the women community (list attached) Please February 24, 1995 MEMORANDUM FOR HAROLD ICKES FROM: Alexis Herman SUBJECT: Women's Leadership Working Dinner Date: Thursday, March 9, 1995 Time: 8:00PM Location: Lynn Cutler's house 4335 37th Street, N.W. PURPOSE: The purposes of this meeting are: for the participants to outline (1) their analysis of what happened in '94, and (2) their concerns about how outreach has lapsed since 1992; to outline our plan for coordinated outreach to women and to get feedback on it; and to discuss the economic/family message for reaching women. GOAL: To instill a sense of confidence that the administration is aware of the problems they are raising, to gain support for the system we are developing to focus on women's outreach, and to outline a role for this group. PARTICIPANTS: The following women have been invited to this dinner; they represent a subset of a larger group that Lynn convenes regularly. (It is a subset because we wanted to keep the meeting small to allow for a real working session, and to accommodate space limitations at Lynn's house.)
