Where Are The Women? The Women Are

When I Started Working, Women Were Working At 59 Cents To The Dollar. We Got A Raise, But It's Still Unfair. We're Still 16 Percent Of Congress, Even Though We're 51 Percent Of The Population. We're A Low Percentage Of Our Ceos. We're A Low Percentage Of Boards And Being Part Of Boards.

We Have Not Ratified The Convention On The Elimination Of All Forms Of Discrimination Among Women. I Think 194 Countries Have Signed Onto It, But The United States Has Not. And Cedaw To The United Nations Is What The Equal Rights Amendment Or The Women's Equality Amendment Is To The United States. I Think We Should Pass The Women's Equality Amendment And A Lot Of These Other Fights Would Go Away.

More Women Are Working Because They Have To, That's What It Takes To Put The Food On The Table And Pay The Rent. And Yet We Have Not Changed Our Policies To Support The Family. The Right Wing Goes To The Floor, And They Did When They Were In Power, And Talk About Family Values. Well, Where Are They? Family Values Is Support For Child Care. Family Values Is Equal Pay For Equal Work So That Women Are Paid Appropriately.

I Have Always Been Supported By The Men In My Life, Which Is Why I Think I've Been Successful In Many Of My Endeavors. My Father Believed I Could Do Anything. He Even Wrote To Al Gore And Told Him That He Thought I Should Be His Vice President.

Women Deserve The Same Permanent Rights And Explicit Protections Given Men In The Constitution.
