Answer:

The National Organization for Women (NOW ) is an organization for the defense of women's rights. Its approach prioritizes achieving economic equality and rights equality. The organization has also been active in the fight for the right to abortion, reproductive freedom, against racism and intolerance in defense of the LGBTQIA community.

One example of the kind of discrimination successfully ended by efforts of NOW is unequal access to public places. The Oak Room was a bar and a restaurant in the Plaza Hotel in New York City that only received men during weekdays (monday through Friday) until 1969, when NOW members organized a protest. Similarly, women were not allowed to enter McSorley Irish Tavern in New York city until August 10, 1970, after NOW's lawyers filed a case of discrimination against the bar in the District Court and won. The bar was forced to admit women and the bathroom became unisex.

Describe the influence interest groups have on legislative process
natta225 [31]

Established by Article I of the Constitution, the Legislative Branch consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate, which together form the United States Congress. The Constitution grants Congress the sole authority to enact legislation and declare war, the right to confirm or reject many Presidential appointments, and substantial investigative powers.

The House of Representatives is made up of 435 elected members, divided among the 50 states in proportion to their total population. In addition, there are 6 non-voting members, representing the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and four other territories of the United States. The presiding officer of the chamber is the Speaker of the House, elected by the Representatives. He or she is third in the line of succession to the Presidency.

Members of the House are elected every two years and must be 25 years of age, a U.S. citizen for at least seven years, and a resident of the state (but not necessarily the district) they represent.
