I'm very disappointed with the outcome of this votation. The senate republicans just killed the Paycheck Fairness Act that will save gender inequality in the workforce and would have taken away wage disparities between men and women. I think the senate weren't thinking clearly.
This is it! The vote for PFA is within days....It's NOW or it's NOT!
Tell your Senator: Vote in favor of the Paycheck Fairness Act without amendments! American women are watching!
