Permanent Commission on the Status of Women comment on appointment of Dora B. Schriro as Commissioner of Connecticut Department of Public Safety 

From release, unedited here: 

For years, the PCSW has challenged the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection (DESPP), formerly the Department of Public Safety, on its historically poor track record when it comes to the promotion and retention of women to leadership positions. So we welcome the appointment of Dora Schriro to this critical and highly visible appointment, and we look forward to working with her on policies and procedures that will help remedy gender inequity among the DESPP’s ranks and leadership.
