Frances Perkins was the trus architect of Social Security.
86 years ago, FDR appointed Francis Perkins to be the nation’s first female Cabinet secretary. From establishing unemployment benefits to crafting the first minimum-wage laws, we owe many of today’s protections for workers to her time as Secretary of Labor. #WomensHistoryMonth

@kirstindowney's GR8 & riveting book on brilliant, doggèd Frances Perkins, FDR Labor Secretary who invented & enabled the New Deal (tho she got zero credit). Perkins understood the challenges for working people better than anyone before or since.#WomensHistoryMonthpic.twitter.com/H5R0NSAHTQ
