All 24 female U.S. senators are urging President Biden to develop a plan to preserve the basic human rights of women and girls in Afghanistan, as outlined in a joint letter.
"Lacking a legitimate Afghan government and military forces to protect them, women and girls are now suffering the predations of a Taliban regime with a track record of brutalizing, isolating, and denying them life and liberty," the letter said.
The bipartisan letter, led by Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst (R), also acknowledged that Afghanistan's previous government operated under a constitution that promoted human rights and ensured certain freedoms to women and girls despite its other flaws.
