Summary
To evaluate a new policy when it is proposed and enacted I ask two basic questions. First, is the policy good or bad for women and girls? Second, will it advance women and girls' rights and status in society or will it limit their full emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development, either as individuals or as a group?
