Women's Lobby, Inc.,
Nebraska was formed in 1973
to "keep people informed in
this state as to the need for
effective legislation in the field
of women's rights" said
Yvonne Norton Leung,
women'g lobbyist.
Leung, who has lobbied for
women's groups in the past,
said, "We decided to form one
lobby group in order to help
set priorities and work' for
legislation benefiting women.
We are a professional group,"
she said.
To set priorities, letters are
sent to women in the sate,
asking their opinions on which
issues are the most important
concerning women.
"Child care and welfare
reform are our two key issues
now," she said.
The purpose of a child care
program would be to provide a
voluntary program for child
development services to
children and their families,
including the care of working
parent's children and assistance
through parent effectiveness
training. Families of all income
- levels vvOulu have 3CCC35 tO ths
facilities on a sliding fee scale,
based on ability to pay.
Women's Lobby began
working on this issue in
September.
"Our study showed that
there are 200,000 kids in need
of help. In larger cities these

services are available but your
smaller towns have no
facilities," she said.
Leung also noted a great
increase in child abuse in areas
"We're interested in
developing more human
services and trying to help
parents become better
parents," she said.
Concerning legislation
dealing with child care, Leung
said there were two major
points to keep in mind.
"Whatever child care
services you build, it has to
have quality. Also, enough
money has to be provided for
welfare mothers so they can
stay at home and raise their
family, if that's what they
want to do," she said.
Leung feels that , poor
women and their children need
adequate payments to exist
and allow them time to raise
their families, and return to the
work force well qualified.
One problem in passing
child care legislation, according
to Leung, is "the feeling on the
floor of the Legislature. Many
of them (legislators) feel we
would bo putting our children
in communistic institutions, or
that we would be socializing
our children, or just providing
a way for mothers to get rid of
their children. .
But it would really be
something the ch'ld and the
family would benefit from.
The family is a strong, basic
unit, but it needs to be
tir.rvnrtoH IV a want to make
rt " -. --
the family a viable unit
It's always a positive thing
to have any child care
legislation passed," she said.
With the help of the
Women's Lobby, many child
support bills have passed. The
passage of these bills is a step
In the right direction,
according to Leung, but more
in needed. Leung said that
many husbands are late in
paying child support, and that
women and children are
entitled to receive the support
awarded them by the courts.
"The responsibility for the
collection of their support
should be with the courts, not
the women," she said.
The Women'g Lobby has
been very successful, Leung
said.
"We have a good
relationship with the senators,
and got many of our bills
passed. They are aware now
that women do exist, and that
there are women in their
respective legislative districts.
The legislators
consciousness has definitely
been raised," she said.
