If disabled women did not lose $24,000 to the wage gap, they could afford over a year of monthly rent and utilities or even four years of disability-related expenses. This #DWEPD, let’s recommit to building an economy where disabled women can thrive. npwf.info/4jxnvjw
⚠️ Job segregation
⚠️ Subminimum wages
⚠️ Employment discrimination
These are all obstacles in the way of closing the wage gap for disabled women. Disabled women deserve equal pay for their work, not barriers to fair pay. #DWEPD nationalpartnership.org/repo…
As the affordability crisis squeezes family budgets across the country, and certain policymakers roll back equity and inclusion initiatives, disabled women face deeply-entrenched barriers to economic stability and security. #DWEPD #NDEAM nationalpartnership.org/repo…

Congress is still running on rules from more than 200 years ago—when women couldn't even vote, let alone serve in office.
No working parent should have to choose between caring for a 4-week-old newborn and doing their job. It's long past time to bring proxy voting for new parents and modernize Congress so it actually works for ALL people.

The horrific case at Cornell is a reminder of why strong Title IX protections matter. Survivors deserve accountability and commitment to safety. While the administration is gutting essential safeguards, we must push back to foster a culture of respect across every institution.
At 53¢ for every dollar, the gap between Latina women and white men is huge. Latina women's work is essential, but they lose $33,730 of pay each year. Latina women deserve to be paid for the value of the work they do. #LatinaEqualPay #Trabajadoras nationalpartnership.org/wp-c…

In 2026, everything is expensive and that makes it hard for families to pay for the things they need. It's even harder for Latina women – they’re paid just 53 cents for every dollar men are paid. But, if the wage gap closed, it would help in some major ways. #LatinaEqualPay Day
Working Latina women in the US face one of the largest wage gaps. They’re paid almost half – just 53 cents on the dollar – of what white men are paid. Finding a way to close that gap is essential on this #LatinaEqualPay Day and every day! nationalpartnership.org/wp-c…

📢 You may have hours left to register to vote! The best way to push back on efforts to discourage Americans from voting is to show up and make your voice heard this fall—and make sure other Americans’ voices are heard too.

The bottom section features red text on a textured white background reading: "In several states, today is the last day to register for the November election. Get registered or check your registration at VOTE.GOV." The graphic includes logos for Center for American Progress and a source citation for Vote.org "Voter Registration Deadlines" (2026).

“Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.” — Fannie Lou Hamer
Today, we celebrate the birthday of a fearless grassroots leader who turned her own experiences of injustice into collective action, organizing her community to fight for voting rights and build Black political power.
For 14 years, Higher Heights has carried that spirit of grassroots organizing forward by defending Black women in office, backing those on the ballot, and building political power that lasts beyond Election Day.
Honor her legacy by investing in that work: a Leadership Circle Member is matching donations dollar for dollar up to $250,000 through November 1, doubling your impact as we keep building toward a future where everybody is free.

Today’s #JobsDay data show another dismal month on the job market with just 29,000 new jobs added in September and a flat unemployment rate. But pulling back the curtain reveals things are even worse for Black women npwf.info/4y0qepb
That’s because women know this economy – which exploits working people to benefit the powerful – is being driven by the Trump administration’s policies which are keeping wages low and allowing discrimination and harassment to flourish. nationalpartnership.org/one-…
