Esta semana, Estados Unidos acudi\u00f3 a las urnas en una de las campa\u00f1as de mitad de mandato m\u00e1s disputadas y divisivas de la historia del pa\u00eds. Si bien los resultados fueron los previstos por la mayor\u00eda de los analistas, con los republicanos manteniendo el Senado y cediendo la C\u00e1mara de Representantes, otros resultados eran menos esperados. Muchos celebran 2018 como el segundo \"A\u00f1o de la Mujer\" (el primero fue en 1992, cuando la representaci\u00f3n femenina casi se duplic\u00f3), ya que varias candidatas obtuvieron la victoria.<\/p>\n

La igualdad de g\u00e9nero en la representaci\u00f3n y los derechos pol\u00edticos es esencial si queremos acabar con las injusticias hist\u00f3ricas que sufre la mitad de la poblaci\u00f3n mundial. Y no s\u00f3lo eso, har\u00e1 que nuestras econom\u00edas sean m\u00e1s productivas, mejorar\u00e1 nuestra salud y har\u00e1 que nuestros gobiernos sean m\u00e1s responsables. Con igualdad de g\u00e9nero en la representaci\u00f3n, podemos construir pol\u00edticas, empresas y sociedades que sirvan a las necesidades de todos nosotros.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Como organizaci\u00f3n, estamos decididos a contribuir a que ese cambio se haga realidad y esperamos que las nuevas representantes ayuden a Estados Unidos a convertirse en una sociedad m\u00e1s igualitaria. Mujeres notables de todos los or\u00edgenes han llegado al Congreso, una haza\u00f1a que sin duda abrir\u00e1 la democracia estadounidense a las necesidades de las mujeres y las ni\u00f1as de todo el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n

Pero, \u00bfest\u00e1 justificado nuestro entusiasmo?<\/p>\n

Para a\u00f1adir contexto, comparemos estos dos a\u00f1os y veamos qu\u00e9 ha cambiado. En el primer A\u00f1o de la Mujer Centro de la Mujer y la Pol\u00edtica Estadounidense<\/a> informa de que el n\u00famero de mujeres pas\u00f3 de 32 en ambas c\u00e1maras (22D, 10R) a 54 (40D, 14R). En ese momento, la diferencia salarial entre hombres y mujeres en EE.UU. era del 71,5%, seg\u00fan el Comit\u00e9 Nacional de Igualdad Salarial<\/a>. La votaci\u00f3n de este a\u00f1o ha elegido a 119 mujeres (100D, 19R), frente a un total de 107 (78D, 29R) la \u00faltima vez. El Comit\u00e9 Nacional de Igualdad Salarial inform\u00f3 de que la diferencia salarial entre hombres y mujeres en 2017 fue del 80,5%. Hay que tener en cuenta que la Ley de Igualdad Salarial se promulg\u00f3 en 1963 y que la primera mujer pol\u00edtica fue elegida para el Congreso en 1916. Parece que el progreso ha sido, en el mejor de los casos, lento.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00bfEsto echa un jarro de agua fr\u00eda a nuestras felicitaciones por las nuevas caras del Congreso? En absoluto. Porque cada victoria en la b\u00fasqueda de la igualdad de g\u00e9nero sirve para inspirar a otras a continuar la lucha. Las mujeres representantes pol\u00edticas son actualmente minor\u00eda, pero podemos ver un cambio en la marea. A pesar de las barreras que se levantan contra ellas, las mujeres est\u00e1n triunfando, no s\u00f3lo en Estados Unidos, sino en todo el mundo.<\/p>\n

Hoy en d\u00eda, las mujeres se asoman al techo de cristal con un martillo en la mano; y lo blanden con todas sus fuerzas.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
