To date there has been over $7 billion in fines collected by various government agencies.

Taylor Osborne, SCBWA President states her enthusiasm about the March Luncheon, “March is a special month for SCBWA as we recognize Women’s History Month and the strides women have made in history. Women’s History month is dedicated to paying tribute to the achievements of women leaders both past and present. I can’t think of a more suited speaker to join us than Noreen Harrington. We are truly honored to have her as our special guest speaker.”
