One woman, Mrs.Alma Lafferty, is a member of the present legislature, and she has had several predecessors.
But Colorado women have a larger influence still in legislative matters.

To guard their interests they have a Legislative Committee of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, consisting of thirty to forty carefully chosen women.
This committee has permanent headquarters in Denver during every session of the legislature, and every bill which directly affects women and children, before reaching the floor of either house, is submitted for approval to the committee.
Miss Jane Addams has declared, and Miss Addams is pretty good authority, that the laws governing women and children in Colorado are superior to those of any other State.

Women receive equal pay for equal work in Colorado.

They are permitted to hold any office.

They are co-guardians of their children, and the education of children has been placed almost entirely in the hands of women.
