74.8 Sex Discrimination Welfare Legislation
Whereas, As the present law stands it assures that a male (related or unrelated, responsible or not to the women or children concerned) is responsible for their economic survival, which clause has often been invoked to deny welfare to women; and,
Whereas, Equal benefits are provided to welfare recipients regardless of their sex; therefore be it,
RESOLVED, That the National Council of Women request that the Federal Government remove sex designation from all Federal Welfare Legislation, and further ask their respective levels of government to do the same thing.
