Letter of Transmittal

                                     December 2010 

To the Members of the Joint Economic Committee:

    I asked the Majority Staff of the Joint Economic Committee 
to prepare a comprehensive review of women in the U.S. economy 
so that policymakers could have a better understanding of 
women's essential contributions to our economy and of their 
potential to play a stronger role in our economic recovery. 
Transmitted hereby is that review, Invest in Women, Invest in 
America, which also serves as the final majority report to be 
issued under my leadership as Chair of the Joint Economic 
Committee.

                   Sincerely,                      

                                         Carolyn B. Maloney

                                     Chair
