SUMMARY:KLCS Julia Butler Hansen: A Trailblazing WA Politician
DESCRIPTION:Julia Butler Hansen was the second woman and first female Democrat elected to the U.S. Congress from Washington State. Undefeated in 41 consecutive elections\, she retired in 1974. Learn about her trailblazing career\, spent championing issues like transportation\, education\, and women's rights. \n\n\n\nIn her amazing career\, Julia came to be known as "The Duchess of Cathlamet\," "The Sage of Wahkiakum County\," "The Little Old Lady in Logging Boots\," "Mrs. Highways\," or "Madame Queen." Her name was recognizable enough that her campaign buttons eventually just said "Julia" in script\, which is also how she was addressed by her constituents. Historian John Hughes' presentation and biography examines the fascinating woman behind the nicknames.
