18 Presidential Candidates Commited to Seeking Gender Parity in National Security Appointments

At LCWINS’ urging, 18 Presidential Candidates Representing Both Parties Committed to Gender Parity in National Security Appointments. In response to LCWINS’ Steering Committee and the hundreds of national security leaders who stand behind us, these candidates promised to ensure diverse hiring pools, set hiring standards that take diversity into account, and not discriminate against applicants who have taken employment breaks or downshifts due to family obligations.
