Problemas

Read the excerpt from "For the ERA." The 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1963 Equal Pay Act are not enough; they are limited in their coverage-for instance, one excludes teachers , and the other leaves out administrative and professional women. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has not proven to be an adequate device , with its power limited to investigation, conciliation, and recommendation to the Justice Department. In its cases involving sexual discrimination, it has failed in more than one-half . The Justice Department has been even less effective. It has intervened in only one case involving discrimination on the basis of sex, and this was on a procedural point. Which best summarizes the excerpt? It is unfortunate that the Civil Rights Act and the Equal Pay Act do not protect all women, nor will the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the Justice Department. Many federal agencies have failed to protect women, including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which does not have adequate powers to enforce the Civil Rights and Equal Pay Acts. Federal agencies like the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Justice Department, along with the Civil Rights and Equal Pay Acts, only partially protect women from discrimination. Existing laws and federal organizations fail women who do some of the most important but underpaid jobs in the country.
