Issue Position: An Economic Agenda for Michigan's Women

Issue Position

I know that economic security for the middle class in Northern Michigan must include measures which will ensure women are treated fairly in the workplace. Equal treatment in the workplace is not just a women's issue, it's a family issue.

I strongly support legislation to ensure that women are treated fairly and equally in the workplace, such as the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, the Paycheck Fairness Act, Title IX, and also the expansion of childcare and preschool. I will support all efforts to eliminate obstacles to equal opportunities for women.
