The Montgomery County Council passed a resolution supporting the principles of the United Nations Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW). The action aligns Montgomery County with other localities that have adopted local CEDAW resolutions despite the U.S. not having ratified the treaty at the federal level. The resolution was advanced alongside a proclamation recognizing Women's History Month.
