Thank God that someone has finally proposed this. My mom hasn’t been getting the proper pay and she’s been working in the same job for almost 30 years.
And of course, it’s Republican men! They’re so stuck in their old backwards ways that they can’t see women and equally as competent as they are.
And props to Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison! She’s done Texas good!
