As we move beyond Women's History Month, I am committed to advancing legislation to raise the minimum wage and ensure women are paid equally for equal work.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We have to raise the minimum wage.
The very fact that women now form about one-fifth of the employes in manufacture and commerce in this country has opened a vast field of industrial legislation directly affecting women as wage-earners.
I believe men and women should get equal pay for equal work.
Join the union, girls, and together say Equal Pay for Equal Work.
Enable every woman who can work to take her place on the labour front, under the principle of equal pay for equal work.
My commitment to gender equality is rooted in the quintessentially American principle of equal justice under law.
If you say, I'm for equal pay, that's a reform. But if you say. I'm a feminist, that's a transformation of society.
Let the politicians debate equal pay and pursue the folly of a war on women in America.
I do not demand equal pay for any women save those who do equal work in value. Scorn to be coddled by your employers; make them understand that you are in their service as workers, not as women.
I would love for women to be focused on maximum wage, and I have fought to be recognized with equality for a long time.
