Today is Equal Pay Day for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, & Pacific Islander women. AANHPI women earned, on average, 80₵ for every dollar earned by white, non-Hispanic men last year. But looking past the average, many ethnic groups face even wider wage gaps. #AANHPIEqualPay

We are joining the fight for Equal Pay with our fellow AANHPI allies! Since the pandemic, our NHPI communities have been rebuilding & working hard to maintain livable means for their families. Pasifika women deserve to have a living wage! #ParityNow #AANHPIWomensEqualPay

The care industry is a direct product of slavery and the devaluation of the labor of Black women. As we celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth, we need to act on the urgent need for policies that value Black women and Black Families, like #PaidLeave & equitable #Childcare

Domestic workers are the ones who can, should, and are leading us into the future. #BlackHistoryMonth
