Rep. Lynn Jenkens, R-Kan., tried to sell American women on the GOP Saturday.
“The challenge we face is encouraging more women to put themselves forward, in public service, and in the private sector,” Jenkins said in the weekly Republican address.
Jenkins highlighted the “bold” agenda being pushed by Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Republican congressional leadership.
“If you’re a female entrepreneur trying to get your business off the ground, we’ll offer ideas to fix the tax code and rein in crippling red tape,” Jenkins said, citing her party’s agenda.
“If you’re a mother caring for a child or an aging parent, we will offer patient-centered solutions to improve access and quality of care and lower healthcare costs,” Jenkins continued. “If you’re worried about the safety of the world we live in nowadays, we will offer ideas to protect our homeland and confront the national security threats we face.”
“In March, we celebrate Women’s History Month, and take the opportunity to focus on the progress we’ve made and the work ahead of us all.”
