I was grateful for the opportunity to testify this evening before the @MassCSW, our state’s chief body tasked with expanding #equality and #opportunity for women.

I’ve been proud to work alongside the Commission on several legislative efforts, most recently in the successful push end gender discrimination in #DisabilityInsurance.

Tonight, I testified on the work I’m involved with in the Legislature to protect #ReproductiveHealthcare, make #childcare more affordable, and create new opportunities for women to lead in both the public and private sectors.

Earlier this week, both houses of the MA legislature passed a bill, which I cosponsored with @RepRuthBalser, that prohibits insurers from charging women more than men for the same #DisabilityInsurance policy.

@RepRuthBalser has spent so many years fighting to end gender discrimination in insurance, and this is an incredible accomplishment and milestone. Between 2012 & 2015, MA women paid on average 23.5 percent more than men for #DisabilityInsurance.

Many thanks also to @JamieEldridgeMA, @SenJoanLovely, @MA_Senate President @KarenSpilka , and the @MassCSW, who led the coalition to advocate for this legislation. I urge Governor Baker to sign the bill without delay!
