Women Against Restricting Reproductive Rights

916 Anti-Women Bills Introduced By The GOP Since March 2011

The GOP would have you believe there’s no war on women after they started the war on women. The first opportunity they had to deflect attention away was when Hilary Rosen, off the top of her head, made the comment that Ann Romney never worked a day in her life. We all know what she meant but it gave the right ammunition to turn it into the war on moms. Just so we’re clear, there is no war on moms. That’s just plain malarkey and everyone, including Republicans know it.

On Saturday, April 28, 2012, women and men across the United States will converge in state capitols and cities, including New York City, to give voice against the oppression of women’s access to health care and women’s rights. Politicians in Washington and in legislatures across the country have been trying, and in some cases succeeding, to legislate away the rights that women have fought for and won over 40 years ago. Over the last several months alone, nearly 1000 bills have been proposed by the GOP targeting women’s rights. This isn’t only a war on women but an attack on all our rights.

Wisconsin Republican Lawmaker: ‘Women Make Less Than Men Because Money Is More Important To Men’

Here’s something to be angry about.

Grothman blamed females for prioritizing childrearing and homemaking over generating an income, which is interesting considering that Grothman and Republicans essentially treat women as babymakers.

Why Sexist Language Matters

Gendered words and phrases like “you guys” may seem small compared to issues like violence against women, but changing our language is an easy way to begin overcoming gender inequality.
