Again you follow the pattern of presenting some data, or often including in this case opinion about data, as if it was your whole argument, without actually developing your argument or showing its relevance to the points under consideration. You don't even do a good job of implying anything about the larger points, you just presented mostly unconnected opinion, or occasionally facts.
Also note that in your quote the person who "didn't give a damn about women's rights", and the group about who it was thought, "would not vote for the bill due to the inclusion of gender, because the clause was opposed by labor unions which the northern Democrats aligned themselves with" are both Democrats.
However, the idea that banishing sex-based discrimination was ridiculous is undermined by the passage, just one year prior, of the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA) by the same Congress
