Spot the Difference!

Sorted under politics on January 31, 2009

I was so completely moved by the following two pictures, originally posted by Jill as Feministe, that I just had to share.

These two pictures are the signings of two of the most important bill signings for women’s rights in the past few years.

Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003

Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009

These pictures really speak for themselves. It is astounding what can happen in six years, especially when it comes to women’s rights. Having a pro-woman administration really does wonders.
