Top Execs Want More Women in Power

Women, armed with 4-year degrees, land 53% of entry-level jobs, yet are still getting stuck in the pipeline.

It's Official. Women: YOU Don't Matter

Conservative lawmakers are targeting women on every front:
- They don't want women to have contraception.
- They are closing down women's health clinics.
- They want to cut family planning AND early childhood education.
- They oppose the Violence Against Women Act.
- They are listening to Catholic bishops and ignoring women.
- Some even want to repeal Equal Pay!

Senate Passes 2012 VAWA

The Violence Against Women Act has reduced violence against women by 63% since its inception in 1994.

Congressman Michael Grimm (SI/Bklyn) has let women down at every turn. Tell Grimm and Congress to do the right thing. Take Action!

Update: The House is attempting to derail VAWA
