Outlook for the women, peace and security agenda.
Significance

That legislation codified the National Action Plan signed by President Barack Obama in 2011 for implementing the WPS agenda passed as UN Security Council Resolution 1325 in 2000, and supplemented since by additional related resolutions and policies.
Impacts
The WPS agenda is only now slowly filtering into mainstream academic considerations of international relations.
US healthcare funding cuts will affect the lives of millions of aid-dependent women.
Women’s issues in US politics are likely to be highlighted most by the House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
