EQUAL PAY DAY

This past Tuesday, April 20, was Equal Pay Day. This means that women must work 16 months to make the same as men make in 12 months. So on April 20, we women finally made up the 22 cents of the dollar that we were short in 2009.

The New Albany Business and Professional Women Board of Directors (Kim Martin-Dawkins, Sarah Ring, Rosalie Dowell, Connie Enlow, Terri Tock, Suellen Wilkinson, Ann Windell and Suzy Higdon) had an excellent article in the Tribune this Tuesday and everyone should check it out.
