But look at the overall economic challenges. the downturn in our economy. and how it is playing out in terms of women. Womens earnings are falling faster than mens. We all hear about the falling of purchasing power among working families across this country. We can see it is falling a good deal faster in terms of the decline in median wages in the year 2007 for women. As I mentioned. this legislation also applies in terms of African Americans. the disability community. age discrimination. national origin quotasall of them. Look what is happening with the current economic crisis. Minorities are hit hardest by the economic downturn.
