Taking Aim At Gender Wage Gap

Description:According to a study by the Institute for Women's Policy Research, women make up nearly half the workforce and receive more college degrees than men, but still on average earn 81 cents for every dollar earned by men nationwide. The gap in Connecticut is even wider, with the weekly earnings for women working both full and part time at just 76 percent of that for men. (2:39)
