indice Women’s stats from NOW:

  • Women only make $.77 to a man's dollar. Could you use the extra 23 cents?
  • The US has no guaranteed medical leave for childbirth; we're trailing 168 countries in the company of only Lesotho, Liberia, Papua New Guinea and Swaziland.
  • The US is near the bottom of the list—again—in our public support for quality childcare for children of working parents.
  • Our access to affordable birth control is now under attack.
  • And our right to safe, accessible, legal abortion is threatened as never before.
  • And finally, women still only make up 16 percent of our representatives in Congress.
