Issues: Technology and Communication Women Employment and Affirmative Action

EMBRACE THE SPACE! I want to work with other legislatures and organizations to see more women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields. I will also work with the Unions to get more women and minority representation in the Unions. I know that the rumor is that you need to know someone to get into the Unions - well, you will know me and I will help you get a seat to the table.
​
As a public servant, I support equal rights for all. Why is it that women are still being paid less than men?! We are still at $.72 of the dollar for women. Even worse, black women are at $.63 and Hispanic women are at $.54 of the dollar! This is unacceptable. While in office, I will keep a close eye on Title IX and the Equal Pay Law to ensure future legislation do not serve as contradictions.
