Equal pay for equal work is the next women's milestone

Today marks the 94th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution guaranteeing women the right to vote. This marked a major milestone for equality in our country. I am committed to another equality milestone--equal pay for equal work! And as South Carolina's new U.S. Senator I will work tirelessly to end this pointless discrimination.

Right now in this country, women earn roughly 20% less than men doing the same job. You and I know this is wrong, plain and simple. But Lindsey Graham seems to think it's just fine. Just this Spring, Graham voted against considering the Paycheck Fairness Act--a law that would have safeguard against wage discrimination based on gender. I'll make equal work for equal pay a priority. As your next Senator, I'll not simply vote for but I will sponsor equal pay for equal work legislation.

Liberty to share love and life is an inherent right

Everyone should have an equal chance to obtain happiness and fulfill the American Dream. Brad opposes efforts to restrict basic freedoms. Liberty to share love and life is an inherent right, and this includes the right to marry the person that you choose. He believes that America is strongest when everyone is free, respected and valued. Source: 2014 S.C. Senate campaign website, BradHutto.com , Jun 25, 2014
