NOW challenges right wing's first 100 days

Article Abstract:

National Organization for Women (NOW) activists have embarked on a high-level campaign to protest the violent climate being perpetrated by right wing groups. NOW leaders launched its 100 Days of Action program on Jan. 4, 1995, to serve as an ultimatum to the Republican-dominated Congress which they claim is sowing an atmosphere of intolerance and hatred through its inflammatory rhetorics.
