Dr. Monica Taylor Offers Comment on Georgia Among the 10 Worst States for Women

Dr. Monica Taylor, Educational Foundations Professor, commented on Georgia being among the 10 worst states for women for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

“Representation is very important, so women are best off choosing to live in states where there are a lot of women legislators as they tend to be committed to women’s issues and intersectional diversity issues in general,” Dr. Taylor noted.
