Justice Reform Legislative and Policy Manager

Rebecca Goldman serves as the justice reform legislative and policy manager with the League of Women Voters of the United States. Rebecca manages the League’s research and serves as the policy and subject matter expert on social justice issues, including climate change, criminal justice, the Equal Rights Amendment, gun safety, health care, immigration, and reproductive justice. 

Rebecca helps develop the League’s national policy agenda and designs and implements advocacy strategies before Congress and the Administration. She also supports affiliates with their state and local legislative initiatives. 

On August 16, the President signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law. The law approves more than 700 billion dollars in federal investments aimed at reducing the national deficit, combating climate change, and lowering health care costs.  

The recently leaked US Supreme Court draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization threatens to overturn the constitutional protection of abortion. If this decision is published, reproductive rights are predicted to largely become a state legislative issue.
