Biden-⁠Harris Administration Celebrates First Anniversary of the Establishment of the White House Gender Policy Council

One year ago today, on International Women’s Day, President Biden issued an Executive Order establishing the White House Gender Policy Council and charged it with leading a government-wide effort to advance gender equity and equality both at home and abroad.

In the year since, the Biden-Harris Administration laid out an ambitious agenda in the first-ever National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality and has taken significant steps to advance equal rights and opportunity:

  • Expanded Economic Opportunity and Supported Women in the Workforce
     

    Prevented and Responded to Gender-Based Violence
     

    Expanded Access to Health Care, including Reproductive Health Care
     

    Advanced Gender Equality Around the World
     

    Promoted Diverse Leadership and Full Participation
     

    Advanced equality for transgender Americans
