Slip-Sliding Away indeed…

The National Women’s Law Center has released a report, Slip-Sliding Away: The Erosion of Hard-Won Gains for Women Under the Bush Administration and an Agenda for Moving Forward. A seriously long name for a seriously scary problem.
The report covers the Administration’s record on 10 areas: women at work; girls and women at school; child care and other supports women need to maintain self-sufficiency; tax and budget policies; retirement security; health and reproductive rights; violence against women; women in the military; judicial nominations; and government offices and advisory bodies charged with safeguarding women’s interests. Whew.
And that’s just domestic issues; I don’t even want to know what a report on Bush’s backwards policies towards global women’s rights would look like. I’m thinking something along the lines of my old-school Encyclopedia Britannica.
