			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Women&#8217;s Policy Alliance has documented this gap, in black and white, in our soon to be released Missouri Women&#8217;s Report.</p>
<p>If you would like to be among the first to receive the report and hear experts speak on how Missouri can close this equity gap, please join us for a news conference on:</p>
<p><strong>March 7, 2012 at 11:30 A.M. in The Capitol Rotunda in Jefferson City.</strong></p>
<p>Key findings of the Missouri Women&#8217;s Report:</p>
<ul>
<li>women earn less and are more likely to live in poverty than men,</li>
<li>women face more obstacles than men when trying to get the health care we need,</li>
<li>women do not reap the same benefits from their college educations as men, and</li>
<li>women run into more roadblocks than men when seeking public office.</li>
</ul>
<p>You will find detailed evidence of these findings in our unprecedented county-by-county report.  The Missouri Women&#8217;s Report reveals how women are doing compared to men in four areas:</p>
<ul>
<li>Health and Well-being</li>
<li>Workforce and Education</li>
<li>Economic Justice</li>
<li>Civic Participation</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Help Missouri become a state where women have equity with men. </strong></p>
<p>How? By urging your elected officials to support the public policy recommendations included in the Missouri Women&#8217;s Report.  If enacted these reforms would create greater equity for women in Missouri.</p>
<p>If you would like to order a copy of the report <a href="mailto:mebeaton@earthlink.net" target="_blank">contact us</a> today.</p>
