Two of our state priorities on the @equalpay2dayorg agenda are officially SIGNED INTO LAW:
Paid family leave ✅
Pay transparency + ending salary history bans ✅
These policies move us closer to fair pay, economic security, and workplaces that actually work for everyone.
Huge thanks to Sen. @jenniferboysko for championing this progress 👏🏽

👷🏻♀️ Apprenticeships change lives.
We need protections to support women’s access to high wage jobs to close the #WageGap!
#TWTF #WomenInApprenticeships #NAW2026
50 years of "trickle-down" economics have created record levels of income inequality. Enough is enough. This #AANHPIEqualPay day, we need leaders to support our communities and help us achieve livable, equitable wages.

Today we recognize the wage gap between Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women and white non-Hispanic men. AANHPI women earned about 83¢ to every $1.
We need to come together to break down economic barriers that affect the AANHPI community. Regardless of our race, gender, income, or immigration status, #AANHPIEqualPay benefits us all.

📢We must reverse the devaluation of a woman’s labor in the workplace and caregiving in the home! Care workers-- especially those in nursing & home health where Black women make up most of workers -- need better wages, #EqualPay #PaidSickDays #PaidLeave #EqualPayDay

Progress isn’t guaranteed — and the pay gap is proof.
The latest Census data shows that women working full-time earn 81¢ for every $1 paid to white men. But women’s working lives don’t fit neatly into one box. Many women work part-time or seasonally, often because caregiving responsibilities, unpredictable schedules, or limited transportation make it harder to sustain full-time work. When we look at all working women, the reality is 76¢ to the dollar.
This isn’t about one paycheck or one choice. The pay gap is a sign of pay inequity — driven by a mix of factors like women being concentrated in lower-paid jobs, caregiving penalties, pay secrecy, and discrimination. That means we need a mix of solutions, too: stronger policies, employer action, and tools that help women advocate for themselves.
This Equal Pay Day, don’t just mind the gap — help close it. Learn more at AAUW about policy solutions, what employers can do, and AAUW trainings for women.

Women of color face the largest gaps in pay compared to men. From food, to child care, to health care – closing the wage gap is a huge step towards making things more affordable for them and their families.

Did you know, according to 2024 Census data, the wage gap for women compared to men is 81 cents on the dollar for full-time, year-round workers.
When you compare it to all earners, including full-time, year-round earners, part-time and part-year workers, the wage gap widens to 76 cents. On this #EqualPayDay, join us in urging the EEOC to not rescind the EEO-1 and related data collections!
