We must and we shall keep moving forward toward a great and decent and just society for all, regardless of race or religion or sex.
America's progress toward a society of decency has been marked and measured by our attitudes toward the role and toward the rights of women.
The equal pay law moves us toward that goal.
This is a good day for our country, and, I am sure, a very proud day for all of you.
