Advocates hope to see more women in state legislatures across the country.
Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen called a special session to address soaring property taxes.
Women hold little more than a third of legislative seats, but they commanded the floor most days of the special session.
Advocates say hot-button issues such as abortion, family budgets and school curriculum and safety drive more women to run for office.
By the end of the monthlong special session, the Legislature had passed only a fraction of the 50% cut to property taxes.
With women holding 18 of 49 legislative seats, Nebraska ranks 19th among states for the number of women lawmakers.
Five women in the Nebraska Legislature , including Linehan , will not return next year because of term limits.
