On #MomsEqualPayDay, we recognize the crucial contributions working moms make to their communities and economy despite being undervalued and underpaid.

New from Isabela Salas-Betsch CAPWomen Single moms are more likely to be in the labor force than married moms and more likely to work full time, yet they face a wage gap of 56 cents on the dollar of comparable dads 🤬 americanprogress.org/article/the-ec…

Moms’ earnings continue to lag behind fathers’ earnings. This wage gap is even larger for single moms. This #MomsEqualPayDay, let's fight to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act, Healthy Families Act & FAMILY Act to close this gap & support working mothers. americanprogress.org/article/the-ec…

The wage gap for moms is 63 cents for every $1 paid to dads. Add in the caregiving that moms do without pay? It drops to 49 cents. How are moms expected to provide for their families? #PaidLeave #MomsEqualPayDay npwf.info/3WLQMuM

Can you believe that, when looking at all workers, working moms earn just 63 cents compared to a working dad's $1? Everyone deserves to be paid fairly. Let's work together to close this gap! #MomsEqualPayDay

For every $1 earned by white, non-Hispanic men working full time, year-round, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) women earn 66¢. This #NHPIWomensEqualPayDay, we’re calling for the passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act and better government data about NHPI communities.
