Women in the United States face severe discrimination and violence, according to the Record of Human Rights Violations in the United States in 2019, which was released on Friday.

The report was issued by the State Council Information Office.

Women in the United States still face systematic, broad and institutional discrimination, with shocking overt and covert gender discrimination in various forms, the report said.

Women in the United States were 21 times more likely to die by firearm homicide than women in peer nations, it noted, adding that sexual assault cases against women kept increasing.
