  • The Role of a Gendered Policy Agenda in Closing the Mayoral Ambition Gap
    Journal of Research on Women andJournal Gender of Research 81 on Women and Gender The role of a gendered policy agenda Volume 6, 81-93 © The Author(s) 2015, 2016 in closing the mayoral ambition gap: Reprints and Permission: email [email protected] Texas Digital Library: The case of Texas female city council members http://www.tdl.org Darlene Budd, Angelique Myers, and Thomas Longoria Abstract This study explores female city council member political ambition to run for mayor. Women who hold mayoral office are potentially more competitive for higher elected office at the state and federal level. This study is based on a survey sent to Texas city council members in cities over 30,000. Forty-one percent of respondents said they would most likely run for mayor at some point, and we do find a gender gap in ambition (50% of men and 36% of women). However, we find that women who advocated a gendered local government political agenda exhibited higher levels of political ambition compared women who do not, and the ambition gap is reduced significantly. This finding holds up, controlling for other factors suggested by the literature that are predictors of political ambition. Two of these other factors—age and personal support—also increase city council member mayoral ambition. The findings are dis- cussed in terms of strategies to increase female mayoral ambition. Keywords political science, women’s studies, sociology, political ambition, gender, local government he underrepresentation of women representation through education, leader- in the United States occurs at the ship training, and networking.

  • 230 Girls Get Ann Richards' Wish Come True When New All-Girls Leadership School Opens in Austin Aug
    August 19, 2007 EDUCATION 230 girls get Ann Richards' wish come true When new all-girls leadership school opens in Austin Aug. 27 it will be only second such public school in Texas By Janet Wilson AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF Sunday, August 19, 2007 Laura and Monica Herrera won the lottery. The sisters tore open letters in March and sparkling confetti flew out. Instantly, they knew they would be two of only 230 girls walking through the doors of Austin's first all-girls public school. They hollered, cheered and jumped up and down in the front hall of their far South Austin home. They dashed to the phone to call grandparents and aunts and uncles with the good news: After surviving a rigorous application process, they had been chosen in a random drawing, putting them into the inaugural class of the Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders when it opens Aug. 27. "We feel blessed," says Thelma Herrera, mother of the sixth- and seventh-graders. "Their dad (Steve) and I told them their hard work in school has given them this opportunity." Laura and Monica, who were students at Mathews Elementary School, not only are living their family's dream, but fulfilling those of former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, a champion of education and women's rights who died last year after a short battle with esophageal cancer. Richards' daughter, Ellen Richards, heads the Ann Richards school's advisory board and says this will be her mother's true legacy. "After she died, we were going through her papers and found a list titled 'How I Want to Spend My Time,' " Ellen says.
