ABSTRACT
Let’s be clear. Our spouses, our employers, and our legisla-tors bear responsibility for helping to create an equitable and manageable work-life scenario in the United States, and for eliminating the barriers that have challenged women in the workplace and the world. Our current situation-an inordinate amount of responsibility for housework and child care, subtle and overt barriers in the workplace, and too little representation in Washington-is both unnecessary and unsustainable.
