Women's Liberation targets USDA in push for top roles
About 250 people attended a lunchtime meeting where the Women's Action Taskforce argued the Agriculture Department remains male dominated with few women in top policymaking jobs. Dr Estelle Ramey challenged notions of female inferiority, noting no physiological reason blocks women's advancement. The event highlighted pay gaps and job-training needs, while USDA records show 85,000 employees, with roughly 66,000 men and 19,000 women, and broad pay scales from GS-1 to GS-18.
