Emmeline B. Wells: [W]oman must be instrumental in bringing about the restoration of that equality which existed when the world was created.1

Spencer W. Kimball, N. Eldon Tanner & Marion G. Romney: [W]omen, as daughters of God, should have without discrimination every political, economic, and educational opportunity.2

Marie Cornwall: [W]hen gendered practices block women's full development and participation in the public world and limit men's involvement in rearing children, then individual agency is constrained.3

Lynn Matthews Anderson: [E]quality in a society is a correct measure of its righteousness--when the people are righteous, they treat one another as equals; when they fall into unrighteousness, there is great inequality both temporally and spiritually.4

Kathleen Bennion Barrett: In our society the law continues to give less regard to women and their work and to show a lack of faith in the capacity of women to make wise choices....If society's attitudes and the laws based on those attitudes are to change, women must decide for themselves what issues are important and what ideas need to be discussed and then have the courage to discuss them seriously.5

Kent Harrison & Mary Stovall Richards: [S]ince all laborers are worthy of their hire (D&C 31:5), one should render to all workers according to their due (Mosiah 4:13) in the culture of the workplace. Such statements prescribe that all employees, whether women or men, should receive equal pay for equal work and should be treated fairly in hiring and promotion.6

Eugene England: We as Mormons...mainly missed participation in...the quest for civil rights for American blacks in the 1950s and 1960s, and our fears and uncertainties are thus far keeping many of us from contributing much to the...quest for equal rights and opportunities for women worldwide.7

Tim B. Heaton: The women's movement has made us painfully aware of many ways in which gender is a basis of discrimination, a basis of evil, as I have defined evil. My religious belief demands that I be intolerant of gender discrimination, that I do what I can to eliminate it. 8
