Our Response to Legislature's Failure to Advance Pay Equity

"The ACLU of Mississippi will continue to advocate for gender equity in Mississippi. Women's rights are constitutional rights. Women should not have to demand pay equity, nor should women have to demand for access to comprehensive, quality, affordable, and confidential reproductive healthcare. Women in Mississippi should not forced to go to court or to beg for equal treatment under the law. It's time that Mississippi stop playing games with women, and institute reforms that prohibit discrimination and advance progress."
