We are strengthening our laws and passing new ones to achieve real, lasting change that reflects the challenges and realities that women face.


We change policy and set a precedent.

We led the fight in New York to eliminate the statute of limitations on first degree rape and successfully pushed to extend the reporting window for 2nd and 1st degree rape to 20 and 10 years respectively. We ushered in no-fault divorce, put a stop to child marriage, and helped close the loophole that allowed abusers to buy and have guns.

Connect with your reps

It’s easy to forget, but important to do: Please thank the leaders who are co-sponsoring pro-women’s rights legislation, so they know just how much it means to you that they have our back. You should also ask your other reps to get on board. It’s easy! Call, email, write, or tweet. Be sure to include @NOW_NYC in your tweets or cc [email protected] to keep us in the loop!

Here’s what you should include in your message:

  1. Your name and neighborhood
  2. The bill name and number
  3. A short and simple message about why this legislation matters to you.
