Show Notes

New report reveals economic challenges for women in Colorado: Nearly one in six women rely on Medicaid, poverty rates double for women-led households, and full-time working women earn less than men. State programs like the Colorado Family Affordability Tax Credit and Equal Pay for Equal Work Act are making a difference, but gaps remain in workforce participation. Childcare struggles and healthcare disparities, including high maternal death rates and infant mortality for Black babies, highlight the need for better support and economic policies to build a stronger future for women and families.
