The Republicans just don't think that your concerns about pay equity are important enough for them to discuss and vote upon in the Senate.
TalkingPointsMemo:
...Republicans filibustered Democratic-led legislation
aimed at closing the pay gap between women and men. The measure would
beef up protections for women who sue employers for gender-based wage
discrimination or discuss pay with their co-workers — and the GOP
blocked it just as it did in late 2010 when the Paycheck Fairness Act
last came up......
“It’s pure election-year politics,” said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL).
“This bill reads more to me like some sort of a welfare plan for trial
lawyers.”
After the vote, Mikulski said, “We’re not going to give up. … But it’s a sad day.”
Shame on the Republicans. Shame on them for gloating while women lose more rights.
This is not June Cleaver's world anymore. Women are informed and working to expose the truth. We know that the huge debt that our country has was caused by the two wars that were waged by George W. Bush. We know he didn't pay for them and just put that debt aside.
Women need to think twice before voting for any Republican. Why vote for someone that will only create more grief and restrictions on your life? A woman voting for a Republican is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders. You know what will happen in the future.
