It’s time for this to end: Native American moms are paid just 48¢ for every $1 paid to white, non-Hispanic dads. #MomsEqualPay

FACT: The #wagegap between mothers and non-mothers is greater than between women and men. All working women and moms deserve to be paid equally & recognized for their contribution to the national economy. #MomsEqualPay #EqualPay #IgualdadSalarial

Terrific news for workers: SB 707 just passed the California Senate! As #GoogleWalkout workers know, #ForcedArbitration is a bad deal for employees. What’s worse: companies FAILING TO PAY arbitration fees – STALLING the legal process. #SB707 would keep things moving. 1/n

Excited to discuss what's happening in employment law, and especially the role of @CalDFEH in enforcing California's civil rights and anti-discrimination protections.
This Saturday at 2PM PST on @UneditedWithCRS, we sit down with @KevinKish_DFEH - the head of the nation's largest public enforcer of anti-discrimination laws - to discuss the changing landscape of employment law. Tune in @KABCRadio! @CalDFEH

#StrongerCA priority bill #AB539 passes the Assembly! Urge your state Senator to support this bill to stop predatory lending which harms CA families. #CALeg @AsmMoniqueLimon @Jess_Bartholow @Western_Center @EqualRightsAdv
Predatory lending disproportionately harms women & people of color. Support CA #AB539 so those who take out "payday" loans to make ends meet can no longer be charged interest rates of 200%+ by predatory lenders #StrongerCA @AsmMoniqueLimon sacbee.com/opinion/article23…

We need to do more to support Black Maternal Health and end racial disparities. I support @PattyMurray and @SenKamalaHarris on resolution recognizing #BlackMaternalHealthWeek. @ACLU
Proud to join @SenKamalaHarris on her resolution recognizing Black Maternal Health Week. Too many mothers in our country are dying in childbirth, and our unacceptably high maternal death rate is even higher among women of color. We have to change that. #BlackMaternalHealthWeek

Bravo to Karen Martin of the #BBC for demanding equal pay for equal work, & going public about the inequality. The accumulation of disparate pay for women who work from 16-70 results in $590K (£465K) less than a man working the same years. This must end! theguardian.com/media/2019/m…

There should be equal pay for equal work. Mr. Kenney's policy of paying young people less violates the fundamental principle of fairness. If you want kids to save up for school in order to better their lives, you don't do that by undercutting their wages. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…
