Senate Fails to Pass Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
BPW/USA was greatly disappointed that the US Senate was unable to pass the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act (HR 2831) on April 23 despite a majority of Senators being in favor of the bill. The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act would fix the Supreme Court`s decision in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. and ensure that victims of pay discrimination have a real chance to pursue their claims. Young Women Unaware Of Folic Acid Requirements
Despite the fact that folic acid can prevent some of the most common birth defects, young women aren`t getting enough of it. Only one in three women ages 18-24 takes a daily supplement containing folic acid, according to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Ga. DARE TO CHANGE: BPW/USA 2008 National Conference
Go Green! You hear the phrase everywhere, and now BPW/USA is daring to go green. The 2008 National Conference, to be held July 23-26 in Atlanta, Georgia has been declared a green conference to protect the environment and to limit our carbon footprint.
