Working Mother Mag Lauds Crapo

The publisher of Working Mother Magazine has named Idaho GOP Sen. Mike Crapo among 29 members of Congress in its "Best of Congress" list. Working Mother Media calls itself the largest multimedia company in the country focused on diversity and the advancement of women. The magazine reaches 2 million readers. Crapo is one of eight Republicans and 21 Democrats chosen for supporting families and family-friendly work practices. Crapo and other recipients “practice what they preach — employing family-friendly policies in their own offices," said Working Mother. Of Crapo's 41 staffers, Working Mother says nine are working moms. Idaho's other lawmakers were not recognized/Dan Popkey, Idaho Statesman. More here.

Question: Is your workplace family-friendly?
