Received this e-mail today from Natalie Tennant's (D. WV) U.S. Senate campaign:
It’s almost unbelievable.
Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito has voted not just once, but four times against equal pay for equal work. Her work against women of our state in her 13 years in Congress shows that Congresswoman Capito stands with big Washington special interests, not West Virginians.
What makes Congresswoman Capito’s votes against women even worse is the fact that in our state, women make just 70 cents on the dollar for doing the exact same work as their male counterparts. That’s well below the national average.
I am running to be the first woman to represent West Virginia in the Senate because the women of our state deserve a senator who will work as hard for them as they do for their families.
Congresswoman Capito needs to get on board. Will you join me in telling her? The time for equal pay is now!

When my daughter Delaney joins the workforce one day, I want her to know that she can do whatever she wants, and that her work matters just as much as any man. More and more women are the breadwinners for their families, and that means that 49 million children depend on their mother’s salary for everything from school lunch to keeping the lights on at home.
Every time that Congresswoman Capito votes against equal pay, she sends the message that these women and children are not as important to her as serving big corporations. It’s up to us to send her a message that a vote against women and families is a vote against West Virginia values.
Join me today by telling Congresswoman Capito that we stand with women, families, and Americans as a whole in calling for equal pay. She’s got to get on board – the time for equal pay is right now!
