Women’s political investments are failing to keep pace with their rising financial capacity, according to a report released by the Women’s Campaign Forum Foundation. The report shows that women give only 29% of donations to candidates, and only 27% of total political donations, including those to PACs and political parties.


This report is released at a time when women make more money and control more spending than ever before, yet have done little to convert that added financial gain to political power."
