The New Democrats would enforce affirmative action legis- lation to require the public ser- vice, crown corporations and companies which receive federal contracts to actively seek out women to hire, promote and train. To New Democrats these aren't ideas to be talked about - they're ideas to be implemented. And they will be if the New Demo- crats have their way.
