WOMEN'S LIVES
Over the past few years, vital data has been deleted,
buried, distorted, or has otherwise gone missing from
government websites and publications.The National Council
for Research on Women has begun to document how these
changes and exclusions affect women's lives in a new report,
entitled MISSING: Information About Women's Lives. The
MisInformation Clearinghouse continues this work, by
gathering new information through the MisInformation Blog
and a Resource Exchange. http://www.ncrw.org/

SLIP-SLIDING AWAY
The report, Slip-Sliding Away: The Erosion of Hard-Won Gains
for Women Under the Bush Administration and an Agenda for
Moving Forward, shows that many of the Administration’s
actions with harsh effects on women are occurring almost
completely without public scrutiny, and some of its  more
well-publicized actions have a particularly harsh impact on
women that is not widely known.  The report includes
recommended actions that should be taken to expand and
protect women’s rights and opportunities. National Women's
Law Center. http://www.nwlc.org/
