EQUAL PAY: Batgirl vs Chamber of Commerce

www.outofthewayoffairpay.org

What would your family do with $434,000?

Improving pay equity would create substantial economic gains for women and their families. A new report found that women lose approximately $434,000, on average, over a 40-year period because of the gender wage gap. The gender wage gap is the annual difference in median wages between men and women who are employed full-time and it widens over time. Other studies show that moms, especially single moms, fare even worse with the gender wage gap.

The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act and the Paycheck Fairness Act are important steps to making sure that women are paid what they are worth by making it easier for women to recover lost wages due to bosses who discriminate and by requiring the federal government to be more proactive in preventing and battling wage discrimination.

But the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is standing in the way of fair pay by opposing pay equity reform proposals in Congress that are needed to achieve pay equity. Tell the U.S. Chamber of Commerce what your family would do with $434,000 and more importantly, tell the Chamber to get out of the way of fair pay!

@tonyocch1 So leave town, or get a sex change operation. But from the sound of it, youmay have already done that.

@tonyocch1 You are the one who is ignorant. Ignorant of how insidiously the women's "lib" movement has eaten away the fabric of modern society. While "empowering" the females, it has turned most men (like yourself) into politically correct lap dogs who are just steps away from wearing silk undies and eyeshadow.

@aal49 No I am not gay, but I can tell you`re ignorant

[aal49]

@tonyocch1 You are gay, right?

[tonyocch1]

@connielane never saw your comment, but what a great one!!! As a member of the male species I am embarassed at some of the male chauvinist comments I see here

@tonyocch1 What kind of joke? The real joke is dippy females trying to make it appear that they can do a man's job. All this just to feel "empowered" and probably to avoid housework. They should be happy to have a man provide for them. They should remember that child bearing and child raising is their highest calling. Look what this progressive attitude has done to the economy and to society. What a shame.

@aal49 Please tell me you posted this as a joke? If not go back to the 1950`s!!

Bullwippy. It's the woman's job to stay home, keep the house & make babies. There would be no unemployment problem if these girls knew their places!
