Representative Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY) said, "There are museums for stamps and spies, for news and for poetry--but today's action by the House means women are on our way toward a 'museum of our own'. What women have contributed to the building of our country is a story long overdue for the telling."

Representative Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY) re-introduced The National Women's History Museum Act (H.R. 1700) with bipartisan support on March 25, 2009. Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) re-introduced the companion Senate bill (S. 2129) on October 29,2009. We've launched the Right Here.
