Moms who work full-time all year are paid just 74 cents for every $1 paid to dads.
And that wage gap only widens for working moms of color.
We need bold policies like #PaidLeave, the Paycheck Fairness Act, and the ERA to close the wage gap once & for all. #MomsEqualPayDay
How do we support families and grow our economy?
We close the gender pay gap.
Moms are paid just $0.62 for every $1 dads earn — and for moms of color, that gap is even wider.
Families deserve better. #MomsEqualPayDay
Today is #MomsEqualPayDay.
Moms are the backbone of the economy, many balancing careers and caring for their families.
I am fighting for equal pay for ALL, including moms.
#DYK that moms take home just $0.71 for every $1 dads earn?
This kind of injustice doesn't just hurt American families, it hurts our entire economy.
This #MomsEqualPayDay, we're continuing our fight to close the wage gap and level the playing field for moms.
Mothers play an essential role in our economy.
Yet moms make only 71 cents per dollar compared to dads—with moms of color making even less.
On #MomsEqualPayDay, I'm continuing my push to enshrine the Equal Rights Amendment, close these gaps & make equal pay the law of the land.
