Obama Goes Full Feminist: ‘Time To Do Away With Workplace Policies That Belong In A ‘Mad Men’ Episode’

"The President’s ‘Mad Men’-era assessment is apt. Women earn less than their male counterparts in the United States no matter their job, industry, or education. Nationally, women earn 77 cents on a man’s dollar — and that number is not getting better. It affects women right out of college and women at the tops of their fields. While the President kicked off his time in office way back in 2008 with the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay act, additional protections against the gender wage gap — namely the Paycheck Fairness Act — have remained in a holding pattern in Congress."
