St. Paul, Minnesota made history as they swore in an all-women city council. The seven members are all under 40 and most are women of color.
“This new class of leader sends a clear message from St. Paul voters, I believe to the whole world: We trust the leadership of these women. We believe in their personal and professional experiences and vision – philanthropic and policy leaders, executive directors of non-profits, an engineer. Wow,” said council president-designate Mitra Jalali. “St. Paul’s teaching everybody what leadership looks like.”
