USA: Kinda like Mad Men

From: Nita and Shaunna, UltraViolet Action

Dear Readers,

Did you see the part in the debate where Mitt Romney refused to endorse equal pay protections but said that women needed to get home early to cook dinner?1

Or the part where he blamed single mothers for gun violence?2

Or when he said there weren’t enough qualified women to serve in his cabinet so he had to have his staff go out and create a “binder full of women?” (A story that actually isn’t even true.)3

Or when he lied about birth control–when the truth is that he thinks employers should be able to take contraception coverage away from women?4

Women have to know what happened at last night’s debate.

So we put together a cute infographic that just about sums it all up. Can you take a moment to share it with your friends? Studies are showing that people trust the information they get from their friends on social networks and catchy infographics like the one we created are a great way to engage your friends around information that is important for them to have.
