Ayanna Pressley: Women in This Country Still Aren’t Considered Equal to Men in the Eyes of the Federal Gov’t

EXCERPT:

PRESSLEY: "The American Constitution is sexist by its very design. This country's laws have historically treated us like second-class citizens, depriving us of the right to vote, enter most jobs, and to own property. While some of these injustices may cease to exist, we still face tremendous barriers to our full participation in society. With tomorrow's vote we have an opportunity to right this country's wrong and to take a stand in the name of equality.”
