NEW ORLEANS (AP) — James Carville and Mary Matalin, the husband-wife political strategists on opposite ends of the spectrum, honored outstanding women in Louisiana government Saturday. In speeches that included jokes, and touched on serious issues such as teen pregnancy and the importance of higher education, their message was the same: Louisiana needs strong women leaders and that can only happen if young girls have good, strong female role models. “Girls need to see other successful women,” Matalin said, addressing a room of roughly 250 attendees of the Louisiana Center for Women and Government’s Hall of Fame awards ceremony in New Orleans, where four women were inducted and several others were recognized for their contributions.——Contact The Daily Reveille’s news staff at [email protected]
