Last week, Emily posted on the CDC report finding an increase of women having children out of wedlock, compared to 2002.
The New York Times's guest bloggers provided some helpful context to that story today. I liked the points on improving pay equity, social services, and facilitating women's leadership in business as important ways to support working mothers.
To that end, SmartMoney.com recently posted an article listing the "10 best places to be a working mom," based on an impressive survey of state laws, economic and professional data, and local child care statistics.
Hats off to SmartMoney for dishing out some pragmatic advice. We at FMF will continue to advocate for paid parental leave, fair pay, workers rights, and affordable health care and child care. Let us know how you're improving conditions for women in the workforce, or holla back at campusteam@feminist.org.
