Latinas need to work up to October 8 -- that's an extra 10 months -- in order to earn what their white male counterpart (with same the qualifications) earned last year. That is not equal pay! It’s bad enough that Latina workers are paid less than their counterparts, most can’t take a paid sick day or #paidleave. Pay disparity keeps Latinx families in poverty and working twice as hard to make ends meet. It's time for equal pay in America! #LatinaEqualPay #Trabajadoras

#BackToSchool can also mean getting the call: your child is sick. Too many caregivers fear answering because missing work to care for a child can mean losing pay--or even a job. It doesn’t have to be this way. Everyone deserves access to a #PaidSickDay policy.

“Our nation has lost an iconic voice, and our movement has lost an extraordinary partner. Gloria Steinem understood that valuing caregiving and enabling people to be good providers and good family members is key to achieving racial, gender, and economic equity... We are deeply grateful that she stood with and inspired our movement.” -Gayle Goldin, Family Values @ Work familyvaluesatwork.org/famil…
