All we want this holiday season is a signature.
Specifically, we are waiting eagerly for Mayor Muriel Bowser to sign the bill to end child marriage in Washington, D.C. — which is sitting on her desk, thanks to unanimous approval from the D.C. council.
If she signs the bill, and if Congress does not veto it, D.C. will join the 13 U.S. states and two territories where we have helped to end a human rights abuse that destroys girls’ lives.
