The Power Of Women
New Report Shows The State Of Women’s Economic Affect At Home, Work
As the nation celebrates the 90th anniversary of women’s right to vote, the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee released a new report analyzing how women’s economic conditions have changed since Geraldine Ferraro shattered the political glass ceiling 25 years ago and ushered in a new era of political leadership for women.
The report finds that women, who now make up nearly half of the labor force, have made significant strides in the past quarter century and are poised to be the engine of economic growth as the United States recovers from the Great Recession. However, challenges remain for women, including a stubborn pay gap where the average full-time working woman earns 80 cents for every dollar earned by the average full-time working man.

Good News On Our Cover Dog
Skinner Finds A Home
In June, TCW featured the chair of the board of trustees for the Humane Society, Deanna Lasner, on the magazine’s cover. Lasner shared the spotlight, however, with Skinner, a Lemon Walker hound that was at the time awaiting adoption. Recently, TCW received the following letter from Beverly Menier, who originally found Skinner. Menier runs Stray Haven animal rescue in Virginia, and her good work on behalf of animals helped Skinner find his way first to the Humane Society, and most recently, into a good home.
