Women demand time for work, family, and ourselves. In order for women to move closer to the feminist dream of time for work, family, and community, the whole society — including employers and individual men — must help pay for and do the work of bringing up children. The generations coming up keep our society running. It is unjust for the labor of raising children to be borne by women alone. For women to move closer to liberation, we not only need individual men to pull their weight at home, we need the whole society to pull its weight. We want high-quality education from birth on, national health care, a shorter workweek, paid parental leave (for women and men) and vacation and sick time guaranteed by law for all
