The United Nations' activities around International Women's Year focused on the World Conference on Women, 1975, held in Mexico City. The United States participated in the conference, sending three representatives: Patricia Hutar, delegation head and U.S. Representative to the U.N. Commission on the Status of Women; Jewel LaFontant, former Deputy Solicitor General of the Department of Justice and U.S. Representative of the Conference; and Jill Ruckelshaus. The conference culminated in a World Plan of Action, which the United States voted against due to its inclusion of anti-Zionist language.
