Business Lobby to Women: Get Back in the Kitchen

Business Lobby to Women: Get Back in the Kitchen

"Right now Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce is soliciting contributions for a fall media campaign to make sure big business “voices are heard.” A graphic intended to promote checkbook-opening fear amongst corporate CEOs includes the ominous silhouettes of protestors and their signs. Among the slogans characterized as a real threat, radical and anti-business, is one that simply says: pay equity now.
Based on their fundraising appeal, it is apparently quite urgent that WMC send a strong message to Wisconsin women and that we be put back in our place - that place is apparently the 1950s, prior to pay equity laws."
