A conversation on women's issues with Rosa DeLauro

Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) speaks with Campus Progress about a pressing need to keep women's issues on the national agenda. She has seen sweeping changes in the office demographic she says -- women now make up half of all U.S. workers -- but "the government has not kept up with the changes in peoples lives," she says. " And it needs to for women at every level."

Her interview reiterates many of the findings in "The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Changes Everything" a report supported by Maria Shriver and the Center for American Progress. The publication, released this fall, analyzes how a growing female presence in the workplace affects not only women, but also men, children and families.
