We’ve had a major success on pay equity already this year with the signing of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act — but the fight for equal pay isn’t over! Women still earn only 78 cents for every dollar earned by men. For women of color, the numbers are even worse! A bill before the Senate, the Paycheck Fairness Act, would help to deter wage discrimination against women. Please urge your Senators to support this bill, and find out more about equal pay for women.
AAUW is calling on supporters to blog and tweet about the importance of equal pay for women on April 28, Equal Pay Day.
